I'm running the US version of System 8.1, with ADD 1.0.2 When I use the
contextual menu (control-click), nothing happens. 

I tried Kevin Blair's suggestion (thanks!) of switching the keyboard to
US, and it does work, but it's causing problems with the pound sign
(having to press option instead of shift), so it isn't ideal. However,
it is very useful, so I'll have to persevere with the US keyboard;
unless there are other options.

For Peter's benefit, here is the blurb about ADD.

Apple Data Detectors is a new technology that enables your
computer to recognize and then act on certain types of
information, or data, in your documents. For example, if you have
a word processing document that contains several e-mail
addresses, Apple Data Detectors can quickly scan the document,
identify all the addresses, and then open a new e-mail message
addressed to the one you select. You can also use Apple Data
Detectors to find a World Wide Web address within an e-mail
message, then open the Web page in your favorite Web browser
program.
