Drag and drop broken

Hi all,

Although it used to work fine, now almost every time I use drag and drop to
move text/code in a page (in code view), Dreamweaver (MX 2004 7.0.1) hangs.
I must kill and reload it, loosing any unsaved changes. Anyone else have
this problem? Better yet, anyone have a solution?

Thanks,
Russ Chinoy

Diagnosing such problems is very hard without complete information about
your computer and its operating environment. Can you please tell me -

0. What is your version of Dreamweaver? And when you right click on the DW
executable (dreamweaver.exe), then select Properties > Version, what is the
version number you see in the properties panel?
1. What is your OS?
2. What is your AntiVirus?
3. Is your AntiVirus doing realtime protection?
4. What is your Firewall?
5. What other background programs are running?
6. What Dreamweaver extensions do you have installed?
7. Are you *running* DMX from a network shared drive?
8. Where are your 'local' files? Are they on a network shared drive?
9. Have you ever been able to run DMX or is this a recent failure?
10. Does this only seem to happen with certain files/sites?
11. Does recreating the site cache (SITE | Recreate Site Cache) help?
12. Are you using *any* OS-improving utilities like "TweakUI" for example?
13. Are you logging on as an ADMINISTRATOR, or do you have admin
privileges?
