Re: Display File Windows

Shot in the dark.

I assume you have the ASSUME keyword coded on a record in all the display
files?

Did you use OVERLAY keyword on each of the window display records?

The restore display would only interfere with performance and the return of
the original display, I would suspect either of the above.
