I have a menu calling another which calls a data entry

screen. The First menu is displayed over the data entry

screen. For example:
  Main Menu:  Data Entry
              Reports
              Processes
              ...
              Exit
  Data Entry: Customers
              Transactions
              ...
When going: Main Menu -] Data Entry -] Customers

Get:
  +--------------------------------------------+
  | Number: 100                                |
  |   Data Entry  Reports  Processes ......    |
  | Address: 1 Main Road                       |
  |          Helpsville                        |
  +--------------------------------------------+
Any suggestions?

The system was originally developed in ARev1. It works fine in ARev1

but gives this problem in ARev3.

Nature of the beast, I'm afraid. Starting with ARev 3.0, the top line of the screen is reserved for the menu. There should be an option somewhere in SYSPROG, perhaps under the AREV INSTALL user that allows you to upgrade the application. When it does the templates, it should move them down a line, provided you were not using full screen windows before. Full screen meaning that the 2 line status bar was not showing. With 3.x having the top line as the menu, the bottom as the status, you have the same real estate, just slightly adjusted.
