My original post appears below. Whilst mulling this over in the
early hours, I suddenly remembered that last week I had (long used)
standalone which failed to launch. The problem was later diagnosed
by the author (thanks Phil) as damage cause by a utility I had used
systemwide to strip out PPC code from apps. This had saved a fair
bit of space, but had killed the app.
Could it be that the same utility has damaged the Windows engine, or
some other component of the Windows standalone building process?

Sorry for the vague subject line for this post, but I can't really
put it in a nutshell.
I have got so used to building stuff on OS X and then just tweaking
for Windows, I am completely thrown by this problem. I am using
Studio 2.7.4 on a MacBook with XP running under parallels for
Windows testing.
I have a card which allows a user to select a folder which contains
JPG images. The filenames of these images are displayed in a
number of fields in different ways, reflecting membership of groups
which are specified by the name. So ADF01.jpg, ADF02.jpg,
ADF03.jpg etc. are all exemplars of the 'ADF category. There can be
any number of categories, and the scripts work out how many and
which image belongs to which category. It sounds a bit
complicated, but it isn't really. Images can be viewed
independently, or along with other members of the same category.
Images can be previewed by clicking on the filename, and then an
order can be generated for something like a slideshow, using
randomisation combined with conditions.
Anyway, it all works tickety boo in IDE and standalone using OS X.
In Win XP the filenames load and fields are populated as expected.
Attempting to use any control, or indeed clicking anywhere on the
card causes all the fields bar one disappear behind (?) a dark grey
colour. The single visible field and all obscured controls are
unresponsive. Clicking generally causes the 'program not
responding' thingy to be thrown by the OS. Not doing anything
seems to have no effect, except the fans slowly crank up to full
speed.
I have rebuilt the standalone, with the same effect.
I have tried searching archives for something like this, but
struggled to identify any relevant terms.
Does any of this ring any bells?
