It's empty.

My help file says: If no value is assigned to InitialDir, or if the
specified directory does not exist, the dialog opens with the current
working directory displayed.

But what is the Current Working Directory? Where is this info stored
(each program stores it separately and it survives a reboot) and how
to retrieve it without calling OpenDialog->Execute() ?

getdcwd and getcurdir won't do, since these require a drive letter.
Besides, these functions probably produce info which is system wide,
and which does not resist a reboot. So this is not the info I want.
