Thank you for your quick reply, Russ.

But that's what I effectively do via the 'control Panel' without creating 
multiple apimgr's

Solution 1782 is a work around and not a good solution.
This way we end up with numerous apimgr.exe running because they don't quit 
when the Remote Desktop is closed!

Cheers,
Frits.

From Solution 1782 on GCS website

Problem Description
Can not run the apitst utility when remotely logged into a P90. Is there a way 
around this?

Fix/Resolution
To run apitst remotely:

1. From the Remote Display Manager, open a command prompt.
2. Change to shell (d: ? sh)
3. Change to the /opt/aim/bin directory.
4. Start another instance of the apimgr process, type: startp /b apimgr 5. You 
can use apitst from the Remote Display Manager.

Dear list,
Is it worth putting a CAR in for the fact the aim* applications don't work from 
a Remote Desktop connection?
Running apitst or apispy both come back with the following message:
D:\opt\aim\bin>apispy

SimSci AIM*API Test Program
AIM*API is not running!
Please restart application after AIM*API is started!

But it is running and when I run the same 'test' programs from the console, 
it's fine.

So, I went to 'Control Panel' and restarted AIM*API from the Remote Desktop 
Connection and all started to work just fine.
I can imagine that all programs using AIM*API are temporary 'disconnected' when 
a restart is done. This can't be right.

Why can't it be like a normal operating system where once a service is started, 
it's available to any application from any terminal?

The above issue is hindering the development of user applications using Remote 
Desktop Connection.
