Problem with Side-by-Side Viewing
When I click on the side-by-side viewing of two documents, my documents
display top/bottom rather than left/right. Do I need to change a setting somewhere to make the documents display side-by-side? Judy F. |

Problem with Side-by-Side Viewing
This has started to happen to me just recently. I'm wondering if a recent
update may have broken this feature. Actually, I just tried this again, and both the documents to be compared stayed maximized and weren't displayed together at all. The only indication of a change was the Close Side by Side toolbar in both windows. When I get a chance I'll reboot Windows and Word and see if that solves the problem. If not, I'll start Word in Safe Mode and see if it works there. Beyond that, I don't know what to suggest. -- Suzanne S.

I downloaded some sort of Windows XP update and some sort of Office update, but nothing Word-specific. When I get a chance I'll reboot Windows and Word and see if that solves the problem.

Problem with Side-by-Side Viewing
Well, I started in Safe Mode, and it worked fine, so I restarted as usual,
and it didn't work. I thought that an add-in I'd created for Word 2007 might be the problem, so I disabled that. No joy. Then I noticed that the Side-by-Side toolbar had a button labeled Reset Window Position, so I clicked that, and all was copacetic. That fix seems to persist even when I close and restart Word. I suspect I may have gotten things out of whack when I rearranged the windows that had opened split vertically instead of horizontally. I still don't know what caused that, but presumably the Reset Window Position button would have worked then, too. -- Suzanne S.
