Display File Windows -- RPG400-L

Can anyone shed some light on a peculiar problem I have.
I'm trying to show an screen with multiple input fields, each field has a
prompt window associated with it. The prompt is invoked by keying a "?" into
the field.  If the user places "?" in several different fields then presses
enter, up comes the first  window ready for a selection to be made. So far
so good....but after the first window is used and the second and subsequent
windows appear the underlying screen format disappears.  Why?  (I've got
RSTDSP etc all set correctly).

The way round it seems to be to force the display out between windows, but
this seems clumsy.

Any and all help greatly appreciated

Regards
Iain
