A user here at NOSC is having an interesting problem with her SE. When she launches an application, the name under the application's icon changes to a dash (-). She can see this happen in the split-second before the application's window opens. When she exists the application, the name is still a dash. This has happened with MicroPhone (sp?) and at least one other program. A second problem is that when she is using Excel, cells which contain data suddenly change, their data being replaced by dashes (do I detect a pattern here?). I believe this happens only to some of the cells. She is using Finder 6.0 and System 4.2. If you have any idea about the cause of these problems, we would appreciate hearing from you.
