Excel 2007 in Windows 7 does not allow you to drag a maxaminzed program to a second screen.

I love the fact that in Windows 7, you can move a maximized screen to a different monitor without having to minimize it first.  I have found it works wthl all programs except Excel.  Any fixes for this?

Thank you

loving windows 7 so far.

Hi

Excel 2007 has some known problems with the Aero Snap features. You cannot drag or use the keyboard shortcuts for most of these options when Excel is maximized, you must click the Restore Down button first.

However, if you have multiple monitors you can still use the Windows logo key+Shift+left or right Arrow key to move a maximized Excel window to the other monitor.

Hope this helps.

Thank You for using Windows 7
