3176.3Here's the trick.BRSVMS::PIGEONTue Feb 18 1997 05:018
    To answer my own question, i.e. how to switch to microsoft GUI look.
    
    Start your first X application. You get the Motif look...
    Start the task manager and kill the first X application.
    The look change immediately 
    After a few second you will see the END TASK box. Click cancel
    
    Enjoy...

    If you're running a recent version of excursion (I know 3.0 has it,
    I don't remember whether 2.1 had it), go into excursion control panel
    into the xwindow tab, and turn off
    
    	allow foreign window manager
    
    This will demand the MS window manager.
