Overlays and Display Screens

We have a programmer here who is trying to get a window to pop up still
leaving the original screen displayed but when he displays the window it
blanks out the screen.

The display is in a separate display file and he has tried Overlay and
Putovr but nothing seems to work. As soon as he displays the window, the
screen background goes blank.

Is there a special trick to get the screen to stay if you are calling to a
separate program with it's own display file? The window is a window subfile.


I swear that I have done this before and it worked.

Thanks for any help.
