Further testing shows the problem is still there when not using a sheet, so
it seems to be some kind of confusion occurring when the results window
appears too quickly. I'm thinking its immediate appearance throws off the
DataBrowsers somehow when they're redrawing in response to the deactivation
of their window, but I don't know the best way to work around it.
