I don't understand what you are saying here. If I focus one of the Xpager desktop other than the first one and then switch to FS Dos if I pick desktop and switch back I end up on the same desktop I started from. This is using the Taskbar. If I pick an app it take me to the app on whichever desktop it happens to be on even if that isn't where I switched to DOS from.

What are your XPager settings? I have Desktop follows active window check on mine. If I uncheck it I see the behavior you are seeing. This happens with the widget also.  

but I just tested 2.90

Glad I could help. (Quicken 6 for DOS???) Thanks
