DOCUMENT:Q122145 28-JUL-2001 [win95x] TITLE :Minimized Excel Workbooks Disappear When Resizing the Window PRODUCT :Microsoft Windows 95.x Retail Product PROD/VER:95 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:win95 appscomp kbAppCompatibility ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Windows 95 - Microsoft Excel for Windows, version 5.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== When you resize a Microsoft Excel 5.0 window containing a minimized workbook (or more than one) to a shorter vertical height, the minimized workbook is hidden from view. CAUSE ===== This problem occurs because Windows 95 uses a different method of icon control when sizing windows. This causes the minimized workbook icon to remain at the same x-y coordinate instead of being relocated to the bottom edge of the resized window. WORKAROUND ========== To work around this problem, click Arrange Icons on the Window menu. This places the icons at the bottom edge of the window. And, they remain there when you resize the window again.
