This article was previously published under Q184589

SYMPTOMS

If you have DragAnyWindow 4.2.1 and drag windows in Microsoft Word 98 Macintosh Edition, you may experience one or more of the following:

  • All of the menus in Word become invisible or blank.
  • The screen redraws itself at unpredictable speeds with random screen flashing.


CAUSE

This problem may occur when you use the Solid Drag option with DragAnyWindow 4.2.1.

RESOLUTION

Upgrade to DragAnyWindow version 4.3. By default, this excludes Word from the Control Panel Options and allows the system to redraw the screens normally.

STATUS

This problem occurs when you use Microsoft Word 98 Macintosh Edition and DragAnyWindow version 4.2.1.

MORE INFORMATION

DragAnyWindow is a shareware Control Panel program that enhances the look and behavior of window dragging. When you drag a window's title bar and the Solid Dragg option is on, the whole window image is moved instead of a typical window outline.
