I am currently using version December 2003. Are you misunderstanding
what I said? When I said that I cannot right-click on the object,
perhaps a better phrase would be that right-clicking always selects the
wrong object. I meant that as I continue to click on 'next', the
selected object *never* selects the object, only other objects.
