Investor/RT Answer
Answers to Common Questions

   

Question

What is the purpose of the "Task Window Title Text" option available in the "Setup: Preferences: General" window?
   

Answer

Multiple instances of Investor/RT can be run simultaneously by installing the software multiple times, each into its own directory folder. Each instance of Investor/RT will be launched from its own directory folder and will operate independently using its own database stored within that folder. A new preference setting has been added to the Setup: Preferences: General window allowing each running instance of Investor/RT to have its own user-specified "task window title". The user-specified text will be appended to "IRT " and the resulting title will appear in the title bar of the Investor/RT task window in the MS Windows versions of Investor/RT. The instance specific name will be viewable in the MS Windows task bar and in the "Alt-Tab" window as you switch among running applications.
