Paragraph Designer Sticks in FM9

[Madeleine r Dimond]

I've noticed that the Paragraph Designer does stick, though where I've 
noticed it is when I try to call the Commands list. I click, and nothing 
happens. At some point the keyboard shortcuts quit working too, and 
eventually I shut down and restart, unless it crashes first.

I'm running stand-alone FM 9 with the first patch on Windows XP SP2.

Best,
