I have 1 Meg. of memory in my ST and can access all 8 screens. If you have a 512K ST, then the maximum # of screens is around 4. If you have loaded a lot of fonts or have desk accessories that are large, then all screens may not be accessible. It could be that this is your problem. Barry Locklear ..ihnp4!drutx!druhi!lbl
