Thanks mike :) This seems to have helped a little bit. The program will now launch past the splash screen, but then has problems with elements (fields, pulldowns, buttons, etc.) dissapearing within the window. Sometimes they will reappear if I can guess where they were and click in that area. It's a stretch to call it usable, but at least it launches. Has anyone experience similar problems in other programs? can this be fixed? thanks, -Zoe Mensaje citado por Mike Hearn <mike@xxxxxxx>: > On Tue, 18 Jan 2005 17:10:37 -0500, zoe wrote: > > This is totally over my head; my intuition tells me it has something to do > > > with my config file, which I'm sure is a disaster.
