Excel 2008 and PopCharX

Has anyone noticed a problem running Excel 2008 with PopCharX?

Recently I noticed that when I am entering data into Excel cells, data
entry will automatically terminate after around 3 seconds (as if
carriage return had been pressed) and any further data will replace
what was previously typed. This is using Office 12.1.0 under OS X
10.5.3. As I thought this was only a problem with Excel I reported the
issue to Microsoft tech support.

Investigating the problem further I determined that this problem with
data entry only occurs if PopCharX is running and is repeatable.

Has anyone else seen this using this combination of software?

Turn off the As In Document option when using Excel. It seems to be the
polling to see the current font that is causing the problem.
