Default Dual monitors and Outlook Express

OLEXP: Right-Click May Not Display Context Menu
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=190056

Although the above article is for an older version of OE, I suspect that
similar problems remain. OE is not multiple monitor aware and there's
probably not much you can do about it.

Hi,

I have an odd problem using Outlook Express with a dual monitor setup
in
Windows XP Pro SP2. If you put a message with an attachment on the
second
monitor, you can't double-click the attachment to open it. Also, if
Outlook
Express is positioned to open and run on the second monitor, you also
cannot
double-click to open attachments (if you right-click, you can see the
context
menu open way over on the primary monitor!). Moving the window to the
primary monitor allows the attachments to be double-clicked.

We have had this same problem with two computers: one with a dual
monitor
and Windows 2000 SP4, and now this one with a dual-monitor and Windows
XP Pro
SP2. Is this a limitation of OE, or is there a fix?

Thanks,

Jeff
