AAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!! >-- >Dave Lewis Loral Instrumentation San Diego (619) 282-3341 If someone can suggest a clean way to do it (I don't have time to do everything). If not, there are two possibilities: (1) Disable auto-activate completely (-A0) (2) Disable keyboard-auto-activate but keep mouse-move-auto-activate one (-A2) Since any feature can be turned on/off at will, you still get the benefit of those other features which work for you. I have this requester problem too (everybody does). For now, I keep a-a on (-A3) and move the mouse onto the requester... inconvenient. -Matt
