As it turns out, the problem only occurs on one of my computers. Since not
even I can reproduce it on other computers, I don't want to waste the time
of anyone on the list. Thanks for the response though, this list has been SO
helpful!

Thanks,
Rob

That does indeed sound weird.  You'll really need to try to produce a short,
complete example showing the problem if you want help.
