No, I do not get the altserver effect of I create a queue called 
TEST.  To make exta sure I added a line into that GROUPS.INI section 
to Override the default server and it does do that for my queues with 
QW in the name but not for others.

Good point.

Yes I do have Onloaded in XNEWS.INI.  It says:
   OnLoaded=acvRemoveFilter,acaNextSCore,acvSwitchView
Maybe the "switchview" is doing it.  I will experiment.

If that is doing it then I can see that GROUPS.INI does not allow me 
to overrride it.  :-(

I adjusted this and found that with it in or out it makes no 
difference to my problem.  Then I reset it and also reset the 
Onloaded in XNEWS.INI and I found that binary groups now load with a 
split screen and queues with QW load with a full screen empty viewer.

They were always the same.

I am going to have to work throught it all again.  :-(
