Are you dealing with a navigational services dialog box that has a few
buttons on the top right that does things?
If so I use Default Folder "SetFileDialogFolder" OSAX to get around it.
Default folder is a Shareware you can find it at VersionTracker.com
This is the code I use in the Prefab tell block.
SetFileDialogFolder alias folderPath
Hope this helps
