Hi,

Hopefully there is a simple solution to this problem, but
as yet I havent found it...its driving me nuts.
When I run this particular program everything works fine
but the actual window is somehow off the visible area of
the desktop so I cant actually get to it. If I try to use
the move command the icon for it appears in the top left
of my screen but if I hold down left mouse and attempt to
drag it back, nothing happens, its as if its lost in
outer space or something. I've tried resizing my desktop
etc but to no avail. Is there some sort of centralise
window command or shortcut so that I can restore this
program to my desktop? Any advice would be greatly
appreciated.

unfortunately its more complex than that, I have tried
all the "normal" options like maximise, move, switch to,
resized my desktop up and down etc etc. It just stays
lost in outer-desktop.
