ELLIPSE Rotate method

In my 2006, when I run the ellipse command, and pick my 2 endpoints for the primary axis, I then want to use the Rotate option, and specify the degrees of rotation (as if a circle was rotated away from the working plane to give an ellipse but its just the 2d ellipse ). Everything works fine up thru typing "R" for Rotate, but as I then type the numeric value (say maybe "60" for rotation of 60deg) the command aborts, and a message to "...use backspace to terminate script" appears instead.

I use this approach almost exclusively (including LISP's & Button Macros...) up until 2006, but now it doesn't seem to work the same. Is it because the command has been "improved" or is this possibly a running error? Either way, any suggestions?

I'm running 2006 and I just tried it on my machine,and it worked fine without any errors.
 
I'm sure there's a setting that's different in my setup from yours. I just can't find it.

Anyone else?

Works in my 2006.
Try a reinstall?
