if you’re in cs3, I bet it does. do it again. hit save as. then don’t hit anything else besides ESC. control should go back to the app. hit save as again and the dialog should have reset itself.

if you’re not in cs3, reset the preferences, per the faq at this link: <http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.ef4a07f/1>

glad to hear it! 🙂

but how come it disappeared?

could be a couple things… did you recently move from a higher resolution (more screen real estate) to a lower? did you recently go from multiple monitors to a single? the dialog got lost off screen. in cs3 there’s code to bring it back (the hit ESC trick). in earlier versions sometimes going back up to a higher res will help you find the missing box, but resetting the preferences always gets it back.
