I don't normally run Excel over two monitors, but I just tried it and it
worked fine for me. Excel stayed as it was, spread over both displays.
Does this happen only with Excel, or do other programs exhibit the same
behavior? Try something simple like Notepad and see what happens, if it does
the same then it's a display setting. What OS and what video card?

If the Excel 2007 "upgrade" was invoked upon you, then I wouldn't hesitate
an instant to turn in a trouble report.........if you whined and pleaded
and
begged for it, then maybe not.......<g

Personally, unless 2007 provided some special advantage to my work, I
would
request a go-back. It's not important what the numbers are of your Excel
version, only that it work for what you need. I use 97 primarily,because
my
biggest client with 1000 computers mainly uses it. I have 2000 and XP
available to test with, but write all my programs in 97. I've never seen
a
03 or 07 version there.

It may come to that. I hate to bug them with such seemingly trivial
things,
but aside from causing hard-to-fix probems for some of my co-workers, it
is
just plain annoying for this to happen every time the screen saver goes
on
and off.

Still wondering though.... does this happen to anyone else??? If there
is
another way to fix it (another cause), I may be able to fix it without
disabling the screen saver.... something they will probably be reluctant
to
do anyway.

We use dual monitors at work (vertically) and stretch the Excel
window
onto
both monitors. I didn't notice this until Excel 2007, but we are
having a
strange issue:

When the screen saver comes on then gets deactivated (moving mouse,
etc),
Excel goes from being on both monitors to being only in the top
monitor.
Then we need to re-stretch the Excel window back down to fill the
second
monitor. This happens every time the screen saver goes on and back
off. The
real problem is that some of the guys at work don't know how to fix
it
and
they mess things up trying to do so (maximizing the Excel window
rather than
re-stretching, etc). We also cannot disable the screen saver because
the
ability to change the screen saver settings has been locked out by
"the man".
:)

Why would the screen saver do this? Can it be prevented? This
happens even
if Excel is the only window open on the desktop. This doesn't seem
like it
should be an Excel issue, but I never noticed this until we upgraded
to
Office 2007 and trust me.... I would have noticed this because it is
annoying!
