September 8, 200322 yr As I go thru the db's I notice that some of them don't have the LAYOUT stuff on the left and I can't figure out how to get it. Like one DB I know has 5 layouts associated with it but I can't select any except the first one because that whole area is missing and nothing seems to work to bring it back. What am I missing?
September 8, 200322 yr The layouts you cannot access from the layout menu are those which have been set to not be 'included in layouts menu' in 'Layouts->Layout Setup', accessible from Layout Mode. They can also be checked off, if the files are single-user, from 'Layouts->Set Layout Order'.
September 8, 200322 yr There is a menu option to hide or show the status area. They changed the menus around after version 5 came out, so I'm not sure where it is on your version. It's possible that it may have been locked in the hidden state by a startup script. If so, you will have to create and run a short script to unlock it: Toggle Status Area [show]
September 8, 200322 yr Author I found the problem. There is a script that is run as soon as the db is open that hides the status area. So I did what you said, BobWeaver, I changed the script to SHOW and now I have acces to it. I'm getting worried. I'm starting to understand this FM stuff.
