Problem

Symptoms: The customer has a macro that brings up the help screen and 1 for the standard template using IF SYSTEM MENU commands, ELSE HELP. The macro is to be assigned to F3. If he presses Help from any screen other than Help, he should get just plain F3, but if he's already in Help, he wants the old template to come up without first flashing the new template. With the current macro, he presses the macro once to get into Help, again to bring up the template he wants, and then he presses enter. He then gets asterisks all over his screen. The macro works if he doesn't turn display off, but then it shows the little flash of the other template (this is what he doesn't want). Solutions: This problem has been given a low priority. If you receive calls on this, please submit it as a candidate for the Hotlist.
