What were you trying to do?
	use Xess with a previosly created document

What's wrong:
        Scratch that last bug report where I said no data corruption.

It fools you into trashing your own data if you're not careful.

I was entering a value into one cell,  and allowed the mouse to
go over the side bar and then back over another cell.    when I 
hit return to enter the contents of the cell,   it went into
the cell the mouse was currently over   ( not the one I was editing ).

luckily it didn't wipe out an important nasty formula or anything,
but it's behavior  is getting very disturbing!
