We have had a link written in MapBasic between MI and a third party product.
It uses the Windows DDE.
Unfortunately it causes the MI cursor to change from the "Normal Pointer" to
the "Move object cross hairs".
This has led to accidental movement of map objects.
We have isolated the cause to the SelChangedHandler.
