Hi Andrew
Thanks for your response. my default is set on Edit but I can do both. I will try it on highlight and see if that makes a difference. My setting look ok or the same.

It's the edit part that I'm having a problem with.
If you key in the order # under "find", (edit checked)
it pulls up another order. Like I said, usually a order made earlier. When you close the wrong order and see the list of your orders the last one highlighted is the wrong order. Several orders are not showing on the list anymore including the order number that was typed in. If you close the "enter/orders/invoices/credits" window and bring it up again the orders are back but now I'm scrolling to find my order to pull it up. Sometimes the find button will work the next time you try the same order and sometimes it's won't.

I was thinking it maybe a vista problem but I have been able to duplicate this problem on our XP machines. since I did the updates then i received this new vista computer it's hard to tell if the ram is a problem not pulling up all the orders or if the upgrade appears to have a clich or if it just can't handle the volumne of current orders we have on file approx 60k plus orders.
I never had this problem with the previous versions.
Our computers are all pretty new, ram shouldn't be an issue.
My other thought might be the number of users at one time makes this happen. We have as many as 10 users using OE at one time and accesses 60k plus orders is it too much?

sorry Vegas to take up your thread it just appeared related.
