When I export my fonts to TTF in FontLab and load them in InDesign, some of the glyphs have switched slots. I've got "en dashes" where "n tildes" should be. "Ham" where "burgers" should be—and so on and so forth.
Basically, anything where I have to press the "option" key is "effed."
OTF versions are fine. Any insights?
Thanks!

Could it possibly be my ascender and descender measurements? Tildes and accent marks extend beyond the ascender measurements.
Also, my HD appeared to be corrupt and I had to run Disk Utility several times to repair the problem.
James, downloaded it and it says I can't be logged in as a user to run Applejack? (Running this script while logged in as a user can crash your operating system)
Not sure how to install this.
My apologies for all the questions—I really don't know very much about programming and these problems are really stumping me.
Thanks for the help.
And have you checked if the fonts are OK? Maybe you have some strange reencoding going on?
For a closer look into the guts of your OTF and TTF fonts, you could give the free OTM Light 3.7, which you can download from here, a try.
In FL 'Options / Generating OpenType TT / TrueType encoding' child panel, make sure that 'Use following codepage for first 256 glyphs:' is set to 'Do not reencode first 256 characters'.
