Guidelines lock them selves in FL

Anybody experienced that the guidelines lock them selves automatically in FontLab? I unlock them all the time, but the next glyph I open they are locked again. I have taken over the project from someone else, and its bugging me.

Bug or feature?

I have taken over the project from someone else...

In my experience, the source of this kind of problem is often someone else's bizarre work habits. Generate a font with what you have, open the font in FontLab, and re-save it as a .vfb file...this OUGHT to get rid of the voodoo the previous artist put into the file.
