Originally I wrote: Hey dev-forum,
I have custom launch that occurs when the user presses one of the vchr keys and it opens up a new form and then does some screen copying but then when I think I return back to the original state nothing works. By nothing works, I mean I can't click on anything like icons and all the other buttons like return to home don't work except the find key, the vchr's and the hot sync key. Once I click the hotsync or one of the vchr everything returns back to normal. What I am wondering is what is the best way to save states or forms. Also I am wondering about the winsavebits function. Does this function only save the screen as an image?

I don't really get how I save the form status with the preferences function. I would asume that I would use one of the getpref ones but other than that I don't know what to do. Sorry but could someone maybe tell me how to do save the form status.
