Yes, I loaded it a few days ago (from where?).  It worked fine and the
ToolBuilder code is very readable.

The only problem I noticed is that the dialog  is not resizable and
this is what you have been discussing so far in this thread.

The folder or dirrectory hierarchy is not fully visible if you have
long directory names.
Maybe just using a scroll pane for the directory hierarchy would be sufficient.
