    MC9.1 not saving description data I type into level manager

    I have old MC9.1 running on win7. For some reason it will not save my description info in level manager. The level works and it shows, in this case, 19 objects on that level but no matter what I do when I exit and then return to level manager my description info has disappeared from that line.
    All the descriptions are there on the already existing lines but they were generated on my WinXP computer at work.

    Any Ideas???

    And, no, I can't afford a newer MC.

    It wouldn't let me do it. I took a screen shot of what happens when I type anything into either field.

    I have seen this before.
    Strange text with only part of your original entry.
    Try mouse dragging to highlight bad text and re-enter it.
    This has worked.
