Karen,
When the settings are enabled, the Icon is shown in its "depressed"
condtition and "raised" when disabled. It's pretty standard. It's just
different from what you are used to seeing.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Quitting to r> prompt, ver.9
Bill: Okay, that's interesting! I guess that worked for me.
When I go to Settings / Startup Options, I see the options for "show r>
prompt" "show database explorer" etc. But unlike 7.6 where there is a
simple
check-box form so you can tell whether the option is on or off, I don't
see
anything like that in 9.0, right? So I clicked on "show r> prompt",
couldn't tell whether it did anything, but now my quit works. If I click
on "show
r> prompt" again, it still works. So does that mean that there is no
on/off switch for these, if you click it once it's always on? I like the
7.6
way better where you can visually tell what's been turned on or not. So
unless you can point me to a new direction, I might suggest that as an
enhancement if you agree.

You would need the users to go to Settings/Startup Options, and enable
"R:Prompt", and disable "Database Explorer" and R:BASE Editor."
Then, when your application "quits", it takes them to their own default
environment.
I do not believe there is a way to force those settings programatically,
but I might be wrong.
What I have done instead is taught users about the R> icon, and changed
any
such optional exits to say "Exit to Database Explorer."
