Not this problem, Harry. (I believe I'm one of perhaps 3 CAD users here.) However, I did
have some mouse issues a while back, involving excess sensitivity and popping up unwanted
windows during certain mouse movements. I fixed this by tinkering around with some CAD
settings. Can't recall exactly what or where they were, but I know that finding them was
quite a bit less straightforward than it should have been. It's possible you have something
similar going on.

Also, I did have a serious 'Trap E' problem that arose after my last system makeover. Like
Process Cmdr., C-A-D Cmdr. relies on a substitute keyboard driver. I had both forgotten to
re-replace this after the system rebuild & reorganization, *and* had lost track of the fact
that I needed the *last* version of it, from the CAD website. (Use of this version was
essential, after a certain fixpack level.) This may well not be what's going on in your case,
but it seemed wise to cover all the bases.
