Re: Excel 2004 Windows ignoring toolbars

Hi Sterling -

First, you've posted to a defunct news group that I just peek at 
periodically, and although I'm sure others do the same you'll get much 
faster & better response if you use:

microsoft.public.mac.office.excel

Now, on the issue you posted - the most common reason for such apparent 
'misbehavior' of windows relative to toolbars is that the toolbars are not

actually *docked* in the first place... even though they may appear to be.

Just a gap of 1 pixel will cause the behavior you describe.

Before going to any other lengths, make sure that any toolbars at the top
of 
the screen are actually snugged up against one another & that the topmost
is 
snugged up against the Menu Bar. The best approach I've found is to drag 
them well away, then drag the first one back 'til it 'snaps' to the Menu 
Bar's bottom edge, then 'snap' the next to the bottom edge of the first.

If you're certain that the gap is closed & still experience the same
problem 
post it to the other group mentioned above. Be sure to specify which
version 
of Excel & OS, including update status if you do.
