Thanks for the quick response. Switching themes did elimitate the title bar issues, but I ended up changing back. I like the Office 2007 theme enough to live with a few quirks.
So far it looks like unchecking 'Minimize application window at startup' has resolved 1b.
Where does this leave us as far as these issues? Should I:
a) Learn to live with the workarounds.
b) Send more details using the support email address.
c) Assume that issues are on the UR bug list and no additional info is needed unless explcitely stated otherwise.
