Tool Bar problems using a 2nd monitor

Hi,
I am using Mathcad 2001 professional and windows XP with a 2nd monitor. My problem is when I use Mathcad on the larger secondary monitor the toolbars: calculator, math, matrix, graph, etc will only display on the left side of the monitor and are partially cutoff. I've tried moving them, but they revert back to the left side. On the primary monitor (laptop) they display fine, but the screen's so small I'd like to use the larger screen.

Thanks

Same problem, have not found a display work around. I am; however, getting a little more proficient with the keyboard shortcut keys (my current workaround)

Not sure which is left monitor, etc. For me, M11 on the secondary (larger) monitor, the floating toolbars wind up pinned to the intra-monitor boundary. However, you can successfully put the toolbars into the program toolbar, which works for 5 of the 9 toolbars.

Of the 4 that don't do this, only the programming and symbolic are really critical, but it seems to me that I can still get to all the choices.

It looks like a configuration problem. At zoom 1, a complete Mathcad tool bar occupies so many pixels, then a matter of adapting. A problem of similar nature occurs when downloading old Mathcad versions with old Windows definitions, it splits the tool bar in 2 even 3 levels. I would nearly swear those old Mathcad sheets from the web were in Windows 97.
