hmmm....You could try using a global field...every time that form is opened, increment....every time one is closed, decrement, and send some sort of warning when the window count gets above a threshold?

They have a telephone system that displays a popup identifying the name of the Heldpesk that the customer is contacting. The vendor assures us that the telephone tool can send keystroke commands to a running app (ARUser) and retrieve the proper Helpdesk Form. This would result in the same search or new window opening up each time a call for Helpdesk A came in. The problem get compounded by Helpdesk B, C and D. Soon we will have E & F. Has anyone dealt with a method to keep track of the open windows in the WUT and manage them so we don't open 99 windows in one working session? I was thinking of using a Close Window Active Link firing on "After Submit" but that may confuse and frustrate the Operators when the window disappears and there is no Request ID feedback.
