I would never have guessed it either!
AND... in the interest of not repeating myself, I would *really* like to get to the bottom of this! If Hercules has a bug in its 3270 display terminal handling, I would *very* much like to identify it and get it fixed:

If you don't want to go to that trouble, I understand. But it would really mean a lot, and I'm sure others would benefit. Thanks.
On the other hand, if the problem is instead a simple case of PEBKAC(*), then forget it. ;-)
--------------------
(*) If I'm understanding things correctly, the problem stems from your connecting a non-standard 3270 model-2 (24x80) device to MTS's "master console", yes? That if you define your Vista 3270 terminal as a normal model-2 (24x80) 3270 device, then it works fine, yes? That the problem only occurs when you connect your Vista 3270 to MTS's master console address as a 3279 model-5 (132x80) device, then the problem occurs, yes? If that's the case (if what I said is true), then that would be classified as PEBKAC IMO.
If that's NOT the case however (if what I wrote above is wrong), then I would appreciate your help with debugging this.
Thanks.
