My Excel is freaking out.  I have a 6/40 LC, 14" monitor w/VRAM, and System 7.
Even with no extentions on, I get very strange results when I'm in 4 or 8bit   
mode.  Moving windows around "skrews up" the worksheet in unpredictable ways  
(some text becomes invisible, some border lines stop at strange places, colors
get mixed up, and worst of all, occasionally what look like color bar codes (as
on soft drink cans) will cover most of the screen!!).

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.  I've tried trashing the copy on my HD 
and starting over with a fresh one, but the same thing happens.  I'm mystified.
