Default excel 2003 minimized files do not display file name

What is displayed on the title bar when you have a workbook open and not
minimized?

Microsoft Excel - filename.xls or just Microsoft Excel?

What is displayed when a Word file is open and minimized?

It is possible through VBA to change the caption in the title bar. Perhaps this
has been done?

Hello and thank you for your suggestion. Selecting windows in taskbar does
not change what I am seeing on the screen. Each minimized file has a
rectangular box in the task bar and inside the rectangle is the Excel logo
and Microsoft Excel in printing. Very recently, though, these rectangles
would also contain the file name and when moused over a dialog box would pop
up giving the file name. Now the poped up dialog box 'just contains
Microsoft Excel.
Any additional suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Suddenly, neither of these things are happening anymore. I have, somehow,
turned this feature off and I am hoping that someone can tell me how to turn
it back on.
