My sincere thanks to Steve Beuttel [scb1@erols.com] for his prompt solution:

David, 

    Odds are you added a package recently that installed a "XKeysymDB" file 
that will be found earlier in your path search, probably in /usr/lib/X11,
than 
your netscape XKeysymDB file. Renaming the offending file will probably
solve 
this and not affect anything adversely. 

-Steve- 

I changed the name of the file /usr/lib/X11/XKeysymDB as he suggested, and I
no longer have the problem.

Subject: Problem with Netscape 4.7

Fellow SA's; 

The machine in question is a Sun E220R, Solaris 7 (11/99), extensively
patched. 

I recently upgraded the version of Netscape from 4.3 to 4.76. When I execute
Netscape, I get the following warning messages:

"Warning: Cannot convert string "<Key>SunCopy" to type VirtualBinding 
Warning: Cannot convert string "<Key>SunCut" to type VirtualBinding 
Warning: Cannot convert string "<Key>SunPaste" to type VirtualBinding

xfeDoCommand(cut) ' 
Warning: translation table syntax error: Unknown keysym name: SunFind 
Warning: ... found while parsing '<Key>SunFind:find-word()' "

Netscape then (seems to) run perfectly. 

However, when I try to paste  some text into an html page, it will not
paste; there is no error message. As a test, I can paste data into the same
page from my PC, running Netscape. I have to send the web page from the Sun
Box in question.

I suspect that the warning messages  (especially the SunPaste) have
something to do with it, but I'm not sure what. 

Ant leads would be appreciated.
