SYMPTOMS

When you view a disputed area such as the Falkland Islands or the Western Sahara in Microsoft Encarta Virtual Globe 99, the word "Disputed" appears twice inside the Dynamic Sensor tool, as in the following example:

Falkland Islands (disputed) (Disputed)

CAUSE

This behavior can occur because the Dynamic Sensor tool is designed to append the text (Disputed) to the name of a disputed area when you move the pointer over the disputed area.

Because the text (disputed) is also appended to the name of a disputed area on the map to avoid the appearance of taking sides in a territorial conflict, the word "Disputed" is repeated inside the Dynamic Sensor tool when you move the pointer over a disputed area.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Encarta Virtual Globe 99, version 1.0.
