Asynchronous task and Advance with Dialog.

Right you are, I see the problem. I had it the wrong way around - the 
advance with dialog setting refers to the START of the task. Easy but 
annoying to work around (disable it at header and enable it for all 
other steps), but I'd agree that it should not be disabled in the builder.
Sorry if that was a misleading answer, I don't have a system handy I can 
check with. I'm now not too sure whether this is the case with later 
versions either.

Cheers,
Mike
