Your new screen will have a number next to it, in my post above screen #1 ( Alarms). Create a tag ( see my post number 2) polling an integer within your PLC, by putting a value of 1 in that register the PV will poll that register and call up screen 1. You will have to put a zero in that register to release control back to an operator so he/she can change screens manually again.
dear mickey and all,,!

Version 1.07 was the very first release of the PanelView 550.
It was, at the time, very popular. But it had a smaller memory size, which RA increased a few years later.
You'll find that any version 1.07 firmware PanelView 550 will forever be at 1.07; they do not have enough memory to be upgraded.
It was possible to configure PanelBuilder32 to remove some of the information from the project to reduce the project size. This has the side-effect of making the application file non-uploadable.
But that was in 1995, and it involved using version 2.60 of PanelBuilder32.
I recommend removing any unused text or graphics from the application, or getting a v2.x or newer terminal.
If you want to try to use the very old software method, it's described in the RA Knowledgebase:
