This is a really basic window dialog as only one window is on screen so no provision is made for partial redraws, and I haven't tried using it when part of it is offscreen. To 'activate' the dialog use the Up/Down arrow keys then type in data. You should be able to change objects & move the window around and still enter data. To 'deactivate' either press Return key or click on button. To exit click on window close. The ASCII text listing is written with a tab spacing of 8. To keep it short I've cut out everything except the essentials. Have fun - comments etc more than welcome Jim Macleod
