Howdy,

I've seen several reports of this problem and I'm guessing it has to do, some how, with the localization you are using.

I wonder of it helps to disable and then enable the tool bar by clicking on the ``lozenge'' shaped button on the top right of the the window. Hmmm... maybe I asked this before :-(.

Good Luck,
