Version: 1.2.0_devel (using KDE KDE 3.3.1) Installed from: Fedora RPMs OS: Linux On the first 'page' of the datawizard where you select the datasource, although the autocompletion works when you use a ~ to indicate home directories, the next button will not highlight when you have indicated valid data. However, if you then expand the ~ to be the full path, it works fine. When manually making a new vector (from the new vector dialog box), you *can* use ~ in the path to the data without having to manually convert the ~ to a full path.
