To get rid of your DISCO: click on the LSK besides the lower DSC entry (which puts DSC on the scratchpad) and then click on the LSK besides the upper DCS entry. So you shouldn't click on the LSK besides the squares!That should do it.

Cheers,I had been clicking on the squares and ended up compounding the problem by getting more and more discos. ThanksJohn

Seems to me that you have 2 entries of DCS, and then you will not be able to close the disco. Try first to delete the second entry of DCS and then close the disco.

how one do I get rid of the squares?. Put EGAA into the BOXES. You can Right-click the LEFT LineSelectKkey on the CDU to place EGAA into the stract-pad then select the LSK next to the boxes or simply type EGAA into the box prompts. Best Wishes,[h4]Randy J.

I just press the LSK button next to the disco then hit the 'DEL' button.It works for me !Dave
