Hi Gene,

yepp, either be very serious about the counterparts, or just issue a 
thisform.lockscreen = 0  and don't give a shit about that counterparts; just 
flip it to OFF in any situation.

Oh, so the Lockscreen = .T. commands along a process path would accumulate and 
thus you'd need an equal number of offsetting Lockscreen = .F. commands to make 
things right?  That might explain some weirdness I've seen over the years when 
I had set Lockscreen=.T. in Routine_A but then it called Routine_B which called 
Routine_C etc and some of those may have also have Lockscreen = .T. commands.  
I suppose the takeaway there is make sure you have the Lockscreen = .F. in the 
same routine as its counterpart?
