Dual monitor question - toolbars won't stay put in 2nd monitor

    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!
