I feel your pain. The only reason I ever tried moving it was that someone
said I could. I experienced similar frustration, which is why I haven't
tried it again. g

Well, I finally got it back to normal, after tremendous frustration. I
think Microsoft dropped the ball here. This should not be so
difficult. Toolbars can usually be docked, undocked, then re-docked
without major difficulty. But, the Task Pane being so difficult is
absurd. I even tried renaming normal.dot and letting Word create a new
normal.dot to see whether that would restore the Task Pane to it's
normal state. It did not.

I intend to never move Task Pane again. I had never moved it before
this incident. The only reason I moved it in this instance was that I
read in a book on MS Office that said the Task Pane could be moved.
So, I thought I'd try it. Big mistake!
