Default Watch Windows - restoring to floating

Hi all,

I've been happily working with a floating Watch Window but suddenly, in
error, it seems to be docked and stuck above my worksheet and occupies the
full width of the screen. How can I return it to its floating status? I can't
resize and nothing else I try seems to work.

Thanks for any advice.

Try double-clicking on the "blue" title bar. This seems to toggle it between
the 2 states, from my experimentation here.

Hi Max,

Thanks for that hint but unfortunately it doesn't seem to work for me. The
Window is well and truly stuck where it is.

Best, SR.

Hi again Max,

Well ... somehow I managed. The toolbar just didn't want to be dragged but I
tried and tried and tried again. Persistance pays! Finally, I was able to
drag it back as a floating toolbar.

Nah ... I like this one. It has a great personality! :-]

Actually, so does my keyboard. Took me a while to figure out why CTRL + ` in
Excel turned all my numbers to Scientific format. All I wanted was to display
formulas. Got that one sorted out too. Eventually.
