Twice I have downloaded and installed ACARS v2.2. The drop down menus are really messed up and impossible to control or to make the selections I want. I can't scroll through the selections normally. When I make a selection it picks something other than the one I clicked on. And, the drop downs don't clear. To clear I have to cover it with another open window then move that window off. Any thoughts?

This has been a reported issue with Windows 7. I am only able to duplicate if I have ACARS overlapping the edge of the FS9 window. It appears to be an OS issue.

Cheers!

Same problem here. However if I move the ACARS over to my 2nd monitor, it works great.
