Dual Monitors and MS Excel

[Sharon]

This isn't a graphics related question, but I don't know what to do and I could sure some help.

I have dual monitors and I am running windows XP Prof. with Office 97. Until recently I could transfer all my programs to either monitor. Now when I click Restore Down so I can transfer Microsoft Excel to the other monitor, Excel disappears right off the screen. Does anyone have a suggestion for this problem?

Thanks.

There must be a leak in your monitor.

DJ you are so funny. Even though you couldn’t solve my problem. You sure gave me a good laugh.

I hope I didn't get too technical for you Sharon. With my advanced knowledge of computers I tend to do that sometimes.

I found the problem! I thought I would post the solution incase it happens to someone else.

Since the Excel document was disappearing off the screen, I decided to change my screen resolution from 1024x768 to 800x600. After doing this I could see my worksheet was reduced to a very small size. I resized it manually then changed my resolution back to 1024x768. Now when I click Restore Down, my worksheet stays on the screen. So when I need to, I can move it to the other monitor.

Sorry DJ, no monitor leak.

Oh Yes, I knew that was the problem. I could have told you that. NOT

I'm glad you figured it out Sharon. I don't know how you figured it out but maybe you at least had some fun looking for the leak. Guess that's the last time you will look for technical answers from me.
