<shame mode> I do know about this one (because it happened to me), but
haven't fixed it yet because I'm not totally familiar with the code (which
is mostly David's) for selecting text. My first foray into it was the
CTRL+Minus code-commenter, and that's a good while ago now. </shame>

This, on the other hand, I haven't a clue about. So I'll ask a few
questions:
* What version of DOS/Win do you use and how much memory do you have?
* Does this happen randomly, or does it only happen in certain parts of the
program? (Bugs?)
* Has anyone else been having EE/Causeway errors?
* If yes, what do you have loaded in your CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT
(Possible Conflict?).
* Does the Causeway error occur with the bound executable, with a source-
code only installation, or both?
Sorry, :(
