See the below communication taken from an email.  I can reproduce this on my dual monitor WinXP 64bit pro workstation. In Step 5, when the user states "Now go to monitor 2’s query analyzer." I click on the very top of the floated Query Analyzer window (not in the editor) to give that floated query analyzer focus. You can see that two items have the orange highlight for focus once this is done: the Servers Pane in the main application window in Monitor 1, and the tab of the floated Query Analyzer in Monitor 2.

"I’m not sure if you can replicate this on your side but here’s what I did:

1.       Open ADS on monitor 1

2.       Open a query analyzer on monitor 1

3.       Open another query analyzer tab and float it onto monitor 2

4.       Select the Servers  list on the main ADS windows on monitor 1. It is shown “active” by the orange indicator on the “stylish” look & feel:

5.       Now go to monitor 2’s query analyzer. The “servers” list on monitor 1 is STILL “active”. So hitting F5 would only refresh it, instead of executing the query on monitor 2’s query analyzer! Same results when you go to “server” menu and select “Execute”… HOWEVER, hitting Ctrl + E would execute the query on monitor 2.

It looks like the bug is the Servers panel seems to grab onto focus even though the focus should’ve been shifted to the query analyzer tab on monitor 2. When this happens, the query analyzer on monitor 1 would still work with F5 as it correctly grabs focus from the Servers panel when it’s clicked…

I hope this makes sense."
