Ahh no - it's because securityPage is NULL for a catalog dialogue - it
just needs the first 2 lines to be guarded with "if (securityPage)".
Not sure what the size is for - it seems to work whatever I set that
too.

the attached screenshot.

It looks a bit crappy for a start - particularly the positioning of
the OK/Cancel buttons. Also for consistency with the other dialogues,
which I think all have a status bar these days.
