Field Tree Won't Dock

[gard0128]

I've had this problem a number of times now.

While I was working in my formula editor, my field tree became un-docked. No matter what I do, I cannot get it to re-dock.

I've tried right clicking and clicking "allow docking", but it does nothing. And when I try to do this again, the "allow docking" option is still unchecked.

This is very annoying when working on a report with a lot of formulas.

Does anyone know why this might be happening and how to address.

Any help is appreciated.

This is a bug and if I remember correctly it doesn't get fixed if you reinstall. I think you need a service pack to fix it.

This happened to me once also. You can (carefully) restore the docking by following the steps in this BO article, which involve editing the registry (which has accidentally been changed):
