Thanks Mike.

TJ, I still have one outstanding question that I have no idea about...

2. Is there a way to pass static arrays between instances of AB...? (I am
not concerned with execution cycle precision... they just need to be generally
available)

Any chance of getting some input...?

Many Thanks

I have not done extensive testing to see exactly how complete the separation is. But, you can certainly have different windows open. Refer to the setup instructions of IO (in Files section of this group) to see how to create the accounts. If using Windows XP, running as a different user is as simple as right clicking on the desktop icon and selecting Run as...

Sadly I don't believe I can have two different setup's in terms of what windows are visible, window position etc within the two instances of AB... (even if one is installed in a separate directory)... I want to use the two instances for quite different purposes...
