David, Seeing that this is an interactive function, why not just let PGMB end with LR on? I doubt the users will run PGMB enough times (in a day) to create a performance issue, especially if it's just a prompt window (no real database IO). We have the exact same scenario. We have a prompt window used on two different screens. They may want to use it or may not. We just end the second prompt program with LR on.

PGMA displays SCREEN1, then calls PGMB. 2. PGMB displays a window. User presses F3. PGMB returns leaving it's display file open and LR off. 3. PGMA displays SCREEN2, then calls PGMB. 4. PGMB displays a window In the above scenario, the background displayed upon execution of step 4 is the same background as displayed in step 2. This situation persists until the display file in PGMB is closed. Given that PGMA and PGMB must remain distinct programs, is there a way to have the current background displayed when PGMB displays it's window? It seems kludgy to close PGMB's display file every time it's called. Below is the DDS for PGMB.
