will really appreciate them. But I am still confused by the problem. I
had the problem with 3.0 - don't have the problem with 3.01 and am just
trying to find out if others are still having the problem after
downloading the patch. I was particularly interested in Susan's
performance running under OSR2 on the MINT because that is what my
laptop and OS are.
Thanks again,
Rose

Also, if I had 4 items in my task bar and said "Bring up Task 3" I would probably not get Task 3. I had to figure out which task I'd actually get -- it would vary each time I used my computer. Very bizarre behavior. I believe my problem was Norton File Manager -- whatever it was, I remember t

But since I have successfully rewritten the macros, I thought that people experiencing the other problem who are unwilling or unable to uninstall the necessary software package (PowerToys or whatever) might be interested in trying what I did.

I finally rewrote the macros to do these things -- they should be in the archives for this list for November and/or December. This doesn't solve the problem that you are all discussing, and it certainly isn't the optimal solution, but since it made my life much easier it might be helpful for someone else too.
