The number of screens is limited by the amount of available memory when 
Degas Elite is started.  I have 1 Meg. of memory in my ST and can access all
8 screens.  If you have a 512K ST, then the maximum # of screens is around 4.
If you have loaded a lot of fonts or have desk accessories that
are large, then all screens may not be accessible.  It could be that this is your
problem.
