I would think it would be helpful if there was a menu item to set CT on or
off, and explain CT compatibility in the help files. I couldn't find any
mention of CT compatibility anywhere, but finally Don wrote me a method of
checking to see if it was turned on or off. ie if you click F1 and a help
screen comes up, then you are not in CT mode..
