Thanks everyone. I think it is an OS problem...which kind of figures. Win2000 has not been my best buddy since I installed it. sigh The good news is that I can at least parent props if I look at my manual and puzzle out what body part I need to mark off. And yes, it is an 800x600 screen resolution. Reinstalling Windows is kind of like contemplating a root canal. You know you have to do it but you sure as hell don't want to. ;-)
