Which video driver is it?moose wrote:This week I upgraded my OS to Windows 7 and installed a new video driver. Everything seems to be fine except that I have lost my ability to enter information on the "Subject" line of a PocoMail new message grid.

I have just installed Windows 7, successfully imported all my mail and settings, but have now discovered the (apparently common) problem of not being able to use the "Subject" line when composing a message. I've tried the two suggested fixes: updated video drivers vs. default installed with Win7 (ATI by the way, in case that gives any clues to anyone), as well as recreate the poco.ini file; all with no success. I've also tried the built in Windows 7 troubleshooting tactics of running in various compatibility modes, and with elevated privileges as administrator. No luck still, so any other ideas? When installing Poco, I went with the suggested option of installing to the (recommended) folders that allow for "roaming" (I think this places the folder structure in a more compatible manner for Vista/Win7).
I really hope some insight is found soon on this, as the program is essentially unusable until this is fixed.

For some reason it made it through the beta testing.
I talked with Slaven about possibility of a quick fix but it's not that easy, it's in fact some special control that allows some extra tricks and having that replaced would mean quite a bit of work, so the fix will probably appear in next update.
