Rich,

Well kinda -- there is no one button that will do this -- but you can do
it one of two 
different ways ...

(1) Easiest method is to follow the steps outlined in the Help files
under
the heading of Toolbars Vanished -- of course, they didn't vanish - but,
doing
the following actions WILL bring the windows back to default locations
::

Toolbars Vanished

In the past, we have had some reports that all of sudden, when DXbase
was started, the toolbars with the bitmap buttons have disappeared.  A
check of the VIEW/Toolbars menu indicates that they are turned on but
yet they are not on the screen.

Among the dozens of clean up activities that occur when you exit DXbase,
one event is that all screen coordinates and other information about
your various toolbars is saved to the DXbase INI file located in your
Windows directory.  We have never been able to determine the cause for
this condition.  We suspect that perhaps DXbase was not closed properly,
or there was a write error to the hard drive when the settings were
being written to your INI file, but with only a few reports we have been
unable to find any cause/effect.

Follow this process for correcting this problem:

 Close DXbase.
 Using Wordpad, open your DXbase INI file located in your Windows
directory.

 Inside the INI file, you will find a large number (approximately 15 of
them) of sections which have the title [Dt.........] followed by a
number of entries within each of these sections.

 Delete every section which begins with [Dt.......] AND,  all entries
within each of these sections.

 Save your changes to text format.

Now when you start DXbase, your toolbars will be displayed in the
default locations. Reposition them etc. to meet your needs.

(2) You could unistall DXbase and them do a reinstall ... NOT the
desired method though!!

Is there a way to reset all windows and toolbars back to their default
settings and locations on the screen?   Thanks...
