Question:

Is there anyway to specify which video page CodeView uses? I have an

application that uses video page one; I can't use CodeView with it

because CodeView also uses video page one.

Response:

CodeView does not allow you to specify which video page it will use.

As a result, any application that uses video page one conflicts with

CodeView and the screen becomes corrupted.

The recommended workaround in this situation is to use the two-monitor

option for CodeView. This option allows CodeView to send the

application's output to one screen while using the first screen for

its own output.

Another less desirable workaround is to avoid the use of video page

one in programs that will be used under CodeView.
