Thanks geep, but that didn't work. I have no idea what could be interfering with Poser's interface, and I'm not sure when it occurred. Unfortunately, I don't have as much time to work with Poser as I used to, so it's been months since I last used it. The only things that have changed would be MS patches. But I'm using the same patches directly from MS, that everyone else is. It's beyond me why I'm the the only one having this problem. perplexed!
