Windows standalone arrow keys problem

[Joe Lewis Wilkins]

Thanks for the suggestion, Mark. I hadn't even thought about a  
keyboard setting for the Fusion/XP I'm running. Everything is/was  
perfect on the Mac side of things. I knew it wasn't skipping cards.  
That was just my best way of describing what was going on. I'm sure  
everything will be fine once I make that adjustment; and, perhaps,  
include a caveat in my instructions for the users.
