thought I would follow up with this to see if you knew anything about this...
SAP replied back and said I needed to upgrade my SAPGUI to 7.4 patch 4 hotfix 1, (currently on 730 patch 9) so we got a test machine and upgraded the gui on it and it seems to work as expected.
Do you know of any KBA's out there that reference the compatibility issues between the two gui versions? Is this a known issue?
We will probably move forward with the 7.4 installation but our basis administrator is not sure this is the core solution.
