This is kind of related to a previous posting, where the issue was how
to
launch a document in its application, rather than IE. In my case, the
document is launched in IE (as required), but I cannot select the menus
(not
active ?).

For example, I open an Excel file in IE and the menus for Edit, View,
Format
and Help cannot be selected (no drop down). I tried this on 2 different
PCs
and it works correctly with one. But I can't find a setting in IE to
enable
the menus. Any suggestions?
