In NV1, we can use F5 to split the screen and see two different reports/transactions at the same time. Does NV2 has this function?

Yes. Right mouse click on the Object title bar and select Window > New Database Explorer. This will give aanother explorer in your books from which to choose reports, transactions etc. You can have mnay different database explorers open in your NV2 books.

You can also rename explorers to a custom name of your choice by right mouse clicking on the odbcderiveds explorer title bar > Window > Edit Title.

For more information, see the NewViews 2.08 Manual > Operating NewViews > Database Explorer

Martin, I tried it today. It would be more useful if those of us with two monitors could drag the second database to the second monitor.

Art,

You need to stretch Microsoft Windows accross the two monitors. If the windows start button is at the bottom of the screen and is displayed on the left monitor and the system tray which contains the system time is displayed on the right monitor, you can Window > New Database Explorer and then from a full NV2 screen minimize both database explorers to the pink NV2 desktop and then stretch the Database explorers to occupy the screen distance you want.

Martin
