John:

>Thank you. That's what I thought. We already have "TRAINING" in the titlebar and on another spot on the screen but some of the "brain surgeons" that I have using the system don't always pay attention. So we're trying to make it more obvious. May even go as far as to put a transparent image over the entire screen that they can touch through as they use touch screens.

Why are you are crtisizing your users? The addition of "TRAINING" in the form's caption is not an obvious visual clue as most people never read it. We use various Bambi images
- on the logon screen
- as the form icon
- on the Save and Delete buttons
when in training mode. Its obvious, gets a laugh, and seems to reduce the users fear of screwing up.

Your transparent image is a very interesting idea.
