Well, I have a slightly similar issue in FC3 which /could/ be the same thing. When I click and drag in a subment of the Application menu, sometimes it decides that I'm /really/ dragging and starts a real drag. I have to let go and start over. I suppose I could learn to click, move, and click again and avoid the issue. So there seems to be something wonky in the drag-detect code. ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' <mailto:tonynelson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ' <http://www.georgeanelson.com/>
