I just set up my first dual monitor workstation, and mostly everything
seems to be going just fine, but the main reason I wanted a 2nd
monitor was to put my ACAD toolbars on the 2nd screen to free up more
space on my primary monitor.

I can put the properties menu, design center, and sheet manager on the
2nd monitor fine, and it will stay perfectly how I left it. But when
I try to put a toolbar onto the 2nd monitor, it moves over fine, but
when I close ACAD and restart it, the toolbars all pop back in on the
primary monitor on the upper left hand corner for some reason.....

Can anybody help? Thanks in advance!

I'm running WinXP, LDD 2005, and an ATI Radeon 9700 TX card.

THE ANSWER MIGHT BE THIS

move your toolbars and save your profile in the properties "preference"
box. It sounds like your default profile is reset everytime you restart.

Good idea, I hadn't thought of that one, but I'm afraid it didn't seem
to do anything different, it still pops up the menu on the primary
monitor the next time I restart instead of where I left it. Thanks
for the input though!
