I don't exactly know what you're talking about, but you might check out
the Dynamic Screen Manager APIs. I've used those to pop up windows on
the screen.

subject: Display screen plus a window

I would like to display a screen for users to input data. Usually I
also put some instructions/directions on the screen too. New users like

it, and experienced users no longer see it. It has proved useful,

I was playing around a bit and decided I wanted to see what those
instructions would look like if they were surrounded with a pretty
border. I would like to write a window and then immediately exfmt a
full screen. I used the overlay keyword. The window does not display.

I couldn't even get the window to display as an additional window when I

used SDA to see if I could figure it out.


Am I having a brain flat, or is this really not a possibility?
