   Hello Martin..   
      
   My new installation of oxp is not persisting with the S(h)ow settings I     
   want for the Areas.  For example, when I first launch the program, I see,   
      
     OpenXP  Re-Org  Message  Netcall  Fido  Edit  Config  Tools  ?   
     All  Write  Text  Bin  Special  Seek  Show: new   
   +--------------------------------------------------------------+

     /FIDO/POINTS   
     /FIDO/RBB.STATS.FE   
     /FIDO/UTF-8   
      
      
   Then, when I set S(h)ow to ALL, I see,   
      
     OpenXP  Re-Org  Message  Netcall  Fido  Edit  Config  Tools  ?   
     All  Write  Text  Bin  Special  Seek  Show: all

   ..and that looks good!   
      
   BUT, when I exit the program, and come back, the progam reverts to showing     
   me the new messages only, again:

   Am I missing locking in the setting somewhere?   My old installation of     
   oxp (same version) does not have that problem!
