Have a look here.  Because it's Delphi I missed this the first time
around:
http://www.mers.com/MERLIST/BORLAND/PUBLIC/DELPHI/VCL/COMPONENTS/WRITI
NG/20710.HTML
(long link-may need to repaste in browser URL window)

Keep in mind that the VCL always hooks the dialog, making the flag
(link above) necessary (at least in Win98?).  I don't know how OWL was
constructed. It is possible to modify the contents of the OPENFILENAME
structure in the VCL by overriding TaskModalDialog, with a line like:
   ((LPOPENFILENAMEA)DialogData)->Flags =
   ((LPOPENFILENAMEA)DialogData)->Flags | OFN_ENABLETEMPLATE;
for example.
