I've got a cancelled market order stuck in "cancelling" mode. I put in a market order to buy a stock at the open (ok, I know that's the worst time for execution on Datek servers). After a couple of minutes when it hadn't executed I cancelled it. Here it is 30 minutes later and my Daily Activity screen still says "cancelling" with no confirmation that my market order either went through or was cancelled. I'm using the express server #7, but I've looked at several others with the same result.

Any suggestions what to do? Has anybody else run into this, and what was the end result? I don't feel I can put in another order until I know for sure whether the first order actually executed.

I cancelled another open limit buy order a few minutes later and it cancelled ok after about 3 minutes. I then entered a different limit buy order, and that one entered ok after a minute or so. What's going on here?
