I often wish to compare a bank statement with my Money file.  I used to do this by minimising both screens and then scrolling on each.  Now I find that once I have miniminsed the Money screen, only the left hand side shows - I cannot figure out how to scroll to the right to see the balance column.  Using the arrow keys doesn't seem to work and there is no "expand" arrow or hand.  The maximize button does not work then either.   I have to close the screen and open it to full size again to carry on using Money.

I have tried a Level 2 repair and the fault has not been repaired.  Any suggestions or workarounds please?  Am I missing something very basic?

Thanks

What version of Windows are you using?

See if  WindowsKey + Down Arrow  or  WindowsKey + Up Arrow helps. Sometimes 2 in a row is called for.

Try Ctrl+Shift+RightArrow to scroll right, and left to scroll left.

The three states of a window, as far as I can find,  are minimized (Task bar only), restored (variable size), and maximized. Restored seems like an odd term, so maybe there is another term for that.

Many thanks.  The Ctrl+Shift+ Right Arrow did the trick.  Many thanks.  It was such a frustrating hitch.
