Definitely a proprietary product of the former Isogon. I was thinking of writing a Vista macro to do it. Can a Rexx macro toggle from one session to the other? But I just finished the editing task. Where's my "I'd rather be coding" bumper sticker when I need it?

However, unless things have changed this is not a free product, so unless some of its other features are also very appealing to management it might be difficult to cost-justify. I'm thinking one could even kludge their own one-clipboard version of split-screen edit cut/paste using REXX Edit macros without too much difficulty. Does such a beast possibly already exist on the CBT Tape web site? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
