Thanks Don,
I have downloaded and am now using version 4.5 too. It doesn't have
quite so many options as version 5 but I don't really need anything
fancy, it just works!

Hi Michael:
I'm still using TAME version 4.5. All I did was install TAME and
ignore it. There is nothing in my Autoexec.bat or Config.sys files.
TAME has added itself to autoexec.nt. It runs when I open DP - it
probably slows the opening by half a second, and I have no problems.
When I click that top left icon, the upper part of the menu is as you
report. Then I get a lower part, Close, edit, defaults, properties,
hide mouse pointer. That properties choice lets me choose a clear
crisp font & size for DP, get the maximum possible use of my screen
for a full view of DP in a window, position the DP window, etc.

Hi Don,
When I click the icon at the top left corner of the DP window,
"properties" is not a menu option. What I see, other than the
standard Windows DOS box options of Restore (greyed out), Move, Size,
Minimize & Maximize, are various Tame options of Edit, View, Help,
Tame Settings Files, Troubleshooting - all these have sub menus but
nowhere do I see anything about window position. I think this is
because I let Tame load at Windows start-up rather than as part of a
batch file to run my DP application.
I will try the batch file approach and report back.
Thanks for your help,
Michael

Michael, since nobody else has offered a solution, let me try.
I do not use TAME at all for the purpose of positioning DP (I do use
TAME). To set the position (& fonts & window size), I click the icon
at the top left corner of the DP window, & choose "properties" from
the menu.
Window position & theoretical size is set in the layout tab. I
choose screen buffer size & layout size 80 x 25. That gives me a
maximum DP screen, so far as I can tell. (The actual size of the
window is set by adjusting the font on the font tab.)
Then I set the position in the Window position section - I choose
0,0 for the top left corner of my screen, but you can adjust it as
you want it. Be sure that you have unchecked "Let system position
window".
Click OK, & then choose "Save properties for future windows with the
same title". That means it affects all DP databases, & retains the
settings you have used.
Click OK again & you have it.
Hope this works for you as well as it does for me.

I have tried asking this to [EMAIL PROTECTED] but it bounced back
two days later.
Does anyone have a good knowledge please of Tame: I have Tame 5
running on a Windows XP Pro system and despite removing the ";*"
from the line "AutoSaveSettings=on ; Save view settings and use on
next run" in "_ProcessStartup.init.tam", my DP applications do not
remember the position of their window between sessions. What am I
doing wrong please?
