We recently upgraded to Filemaker 8.5. Before the upgrade when you went to "Window" in the menu it would list the files you currently have open. Now you get some files showing at the bottom and some are over in the "Show Window". Hope that makes sense. Question is: Is there a way to just make all the files open show in the main "Window" area annd not in the Show Window" area?

There really doesn't even seem to be any logic as to what files show under "Window" or under "Show Window". Or am I missing something?

All open and not hidden tables are under "Windows"...

All tables that have more than one Windows obtained with the Menu Command: "New Window" and then hided with "Hide Window", are under "Show Window"

The same with a table's hidden window.

Thanks for the response Ray. Kind of wish they would have left it the way it was in previous versions. May have to alter some of the scripts, as the users here are having trouble getting used to the the way filemaker handles this now.
