I know I should know this but I don´t. Half my screen is taken up by tool bar on here, it is the same with my Emails. I´ve tried everything I´m sure it´s something easy. Thanks.

You mean you have a lot of tool bars? Im trying to think - is it F11 you press to restore it? Or try restart?

Wow Jim, I got it right - Im sure it was you who told me before :)

Hi Heather
Any tips I give are usually picked up from other people,lol.
To many toolbars?
Go to view
I have status bar and menu bar ticked.
To remove ticks, untick "lock the toolbar" first and retick it last.
