Keith Are you, by any chance, using BVG Docu as your Dictionary substitute? Or is it installed in your Plugins? If so, remove it from your 8.1 set of plugins, as it's not compatible and lead to this sort of behaviour (for me, at least), if I'm understanding your problem correctly.
Alternatively, run through your plugins to see if it's another one that is causing issues for you. Take 1/2 of them out, restart, see if problem occurs, etc... :-) HTH cheers Alan -- Alan Stenhouse alanstenho...@hotmail.com Check out our apps on the App Store: BeatSpeak - the multilingual talking metronome EV-Point - Find your nearest Electric Vehicle Recharge Station.

How do you pronounce LiveCode. Do you rhyme Live with give >> or hive? I've always thought LiveCode's slogan should be 'If you Live >> Code, then LiveCode' - the first Live rhyming with give, the 2nd with >> hive. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
