I know these are not supported by Microsoft but I'm hoping someone will be
able to point me toward a solution. I am running the Virual Desktop Manager
on XP Pro, SP3; when I have an excel spreadsheet open and switch to a
different desktop, when I return to the original desktop all the menus and
tools bars for the Excel are gone. Is there some way around this problem or
must i just live with it.

try increasing your
virtual memory and
decreasing some of
the loaded processes
running that are not
needed.

That didn't help, but I appreciate the effort. Any other ideas?

not really because
it seems to be an
issue relating to
system resources.

maybe you can test
the project in safemode
and see if it works
perfect. if so, then
this would be a clue.

Windows doesn't like virtual desktops. Run Linux, it has virtual
desktops built in which don't have the problems you mention.
