I don't know if I can explain this so here goes.

Normally I can call my library site up and the cursor will be blinking in the log in box and then I call up YCIII and make sure my pin is highlighted then hit F8 and shoot it to the log in box.

My problem now is when I open YCIII it takes the focus away from the log in box. When I put the cursor back to log in box then it minimizes YCIII and I have to start all over and over.

I don't think I have made any changes to my 1 week old laptop to cause this to change from working the right way.

Also after using this program and closing it it disappears from the system tray.

This is definitely an issue with YC3, not Windows Vista per se. Go visit YC3 developer support page HERE for help.

Good luck.

This all functioned perfectly for the first few days then it just quit.

I have made a good many personal tweaks and don't know if that was what did it.

Will keep checking around.

Just to let you know this problem has been resloved.

Now when I have my login box of choice with the cursor blinking in it up and load Yankee Clipper the focus does leave the box but when I highlight my entry in YC and click the F8(shoot) and close YC the cursor focus goes back to the login box and the pin appears there.

The only difference I can see is now the YC program doesn't disappear from the system tray as it was previously doing.
