<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Christian, if you’re still struggling and a reboot/beer don’t help the situation (can’t hurt!) you might try sharing one of your problem projects’ files to see if others can successfully get into wizards under
different operating systems and so forth. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">If it only happened with one project, I’d guess the behavior you’re experiencing could mean something is awry specifically with the *.PD2 file containing the user’s wizard inputs, if the project behaves nicely
otherwise in detailed mode. However if the same problem happening with <u>all</u> your projects – that sounds much more like an issue with your equest installation or some kind of operating system compatibility setting issue.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
