AutoCAD 2D spline problem

AutoCAD 2D spline problem

AutoCAD 2D spline problem

(OP)
Utilizing autoCAD 97 LT, I'm encountering an occasional situation when drawing a spline. As I begin the process of clicking along to create the points I prefer, upon selecting the second point and the last point, a tail whips around and ruins the intended objective. Interestingly, the offset command will not recognize the screwed up spline as a valid object.

As a side note, it seems that in these particular drawings, perpendicular snaps will only work once in awhile. It's as if some strange 3D aspect is alive in the drawing and yet this is a 2D program.

Any thoughts out there?
