[cw-discuss] Word mouse and keyboard focus lost

Hi folks,

when starting real work on cx pro on my terminal server, I found that 
rather frequently I'm losing focus and access on Word 2k when I switch 
desktops. When I type a letter and want to look up something in an 
application on another desktop and I come back, the first key I type 
will appear couple of times, then I lose focus on the Word window and 
cannot just jump back in. Sometimes the mouse disappears under the 
document window and appears only all around it. Word seems to be caught 
in an endless event loop - sometimes it appears blinking.

The workaround is to use Word's symbol in Klipper to go to another Word 
window and back to the current one. After doing so, the thing won't 
happen again with this document window, but when I open another document 
it might happen again with that one.

Anyone here with an idea what's going wrong there?

Rolf
