To this undercooked message of mine, I'd like to add
a recent earth-shaking discovery ;-): the bleed-through 
can be prevented by setting the Win3.1 /s NOT to run in 
the background (in the Advanced Change Program DVC menu). 
However, the DVC loses mouse control completely, so the text 
cut-and-paste capability in DVC I use so often is lost.
Any suggestions?

Tony
