Open Dialog Oddity

At some point the File..Open dialog started misbehaving. Idon't know if this is a problem with our network, our folder setupor if it is a general problem that others have seen.

Often, but not always, when switching the file type in theFile..Open dialog, all the files in the window disappear. Aftersome amount of time they come back, but our workaround has been togo up one directory and then back into the original directory, atwhich time the files reappear instantly. This is not related to thethumbnails (I turn those off). It is not specific to certaindirectories. It happens often enough to be really annoying.

This was a problem in SW2007 and it it still there in 2009. I don'tthink I saw this behavior prior to that. Before I spend unavailabletime investigating, has anyone else seen this behavior?
