sjl,

You need two workstations or workstation sessions.  Let us call them
DSP1 and DSP2.  DSP2 must be available; for me this usually means that
DSP2 is sitting at a signon screen, but I suppose it would also work
with DSP2 varied on but not assigned to a subsystem.

In your session on DSP1, issue the command 
    OVRDBF yourdspf DEV(DSP2)
and then run the program, possibly under STRDBG.

The DEV() parameter of CRTDSPF or OVRDSPF allows multiple values, so
you can have one instance of a program controlling multiple
worstations.  I do not even want to think about why you might want to
do this.

Cheers,
Terry.
