TITLE:   Opening a Document in Multiple Windows
PRODUCT: Ami Pro 2.0
DATE:    25-Sep-1991

PROBLEM: 

What protection against overwriting editing changes are provided for a 
document that is open in multiple windows during a session of Ami Pro?

SOLUTION:

A file can be opened multiple times in Ami Pro under the Multiple Document 
Interface (MDI).  Editing changes, however, can be saved only in the first 
window in which a file is opened.  All other windows in which the same file is 
opened are read only and editing changes cannot be saved from those windows.  
A read only indication will display in the title bar of all windows in which a 
read only copy of a file is opened.  

RECOMMENDATION: To edit a document that is opened in multiple windows, place 
the insertion point in the window that does not indicate "Read Only".  If text 
is typed into a window that is titled Read Only, the editing can be saved to a 
different file name by using the File / Save As function.
