Guest A.Translator Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 I like to have several programmes open, for instance a word processor and a dictionary or browser. I would like to be able to work in my word processor and have the dictionary open at the same time. Now the moment I click the dictionary, the word processor gets minimized to the sys tray. Does anyone know of (free or cheap) software that can achieve this? I know it can be done using two monitors, but I would like to have this on my laptop with only one monitor. Windows XP Pro, SP2. -- Groet, Adriana [ gooi de vuilnis weg als je me wilt mailen ] http://www.spinsister.nl
