Hi

Not sure if a programming issue, but will start here first. I have developed an application (in vb.net) that runs fine on any pc I have installed it on. Just recently I installed it on a new machine that is running 2 monitors. Now when a feature of the application is used where a "popup" or sub-window is supposed to be dislpayed, the window can only be seen in the task bar and no-where else. Clicking on it won't help either, it jst seems to dissapear?

Any ideas?

Dave
 
Sorry I should clarify the problem.

The new window that opens is supposed to be visible but is minimised. Clicking on it will not Maximise or restore it, and neither of these options are displayed when I right click. Right-Click "Move" does not seem to work either.
 
I once had this problem when I had dual monitors and compiled a project on the second monitor. When I took the program to another computer running a single monitor it would think the second was still there and when executed it would be off screen such as you are saying is happening. On the flip side I got a little ticked, went home and disconnected the second monitor. Much to say, I have not had the problem duplicate.
