    Check your FILEDIA system variable for the file open problem. Type
    FILEDIA at the command line and make sure it's ON.

    For the select problem, check your PICKADD system variable. Type
    PICKADD at the command line and make sure it also is ON.

    BKT has a good answer. However, for the person I most recently
    helped, a full uninstall and reinstall did the trick for them. I hope
    you don't have to go that far, but it might be necessary.

    Good point, Bill. I should have mentioned that, when more than one
    variable seems to have gotten changed, sometimes it's due to an errant
    lisp program, but you should be ready to do a reinstall in case
    something ended up getting corrupted.
