HI Dave -

Does this happen when you start a new file from a factory-default template and then run Text? Or is this specific to a file that you are using?
-wim

I just tried a new template and it worked as expected. So, it must be file specific. Now, the question becomes, is it possible to create a new file with the work I’ve already done?
