    Going from memory, you have to install SSDR, use it at least once, THEN CLOSE SSDR and plug the FlexControl into a USB port.  Then you can fire up SSDR.  NOTE THAT the FlexControl may not work in ALL of your USB ports.  I've found one USB port that it works in, so I stick with that one.  Recently it has been working consistently.  Originally it wasn't consistent, and I'd have to unplug it and plug it back in.

    Note ALSO that I also use DogParkSDR, and the Flex Control works just fine with that app!

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph.
