pcAnyWhere issues

I am doing remote Sesame support with pcAnyWhere and having Sesame problems.
The problem that I am seeing is that I cannot select anything from combo boxes in the designer. Cannot change the names of fields, forms, databases, reports, in the database manager.
If I want to change a font, color, toggle ReadOnly, etc either the options to choose from do not display, or if they do dropdown in a display, moving the mouse into the column to make a selection closes the list, keeping the initial value.
Same results on different account sites, different OS at their end. All other programs on all systems behave properly using pcAnyWhere.
I don't know enough about what goes on under the covers of pcAnyWhere, but I have been able to use it reliably for years with all other applications.
Reduced colors down to 256, using TCP/IP connections. OS used are Win98SE, Win2000, Win95. Versions of pcAnywhere are 9.2, and 10.5.
I know that some "standard" Windows keys do not work in Sesame, so I suspect this may be related to the way Sesame interprets I/O.
Don't know what is different about Sesame, only need to know: What is needed to correct it so that pcAnyWhere is a useable tool again?
