The ability to access more than one open drawing file from the Windows Taskbar

[cwmyers]

This is a simple question, please forgive me if it has been asked already. I was just (forcibly) upgraded to a new PC and to version 2008 without a chance to migrate my settings, and the only thing I can't seem to set is this. In Ver 2007, if I had 2 or more drawings open at the same time, each had their own window that I could access from the Start Menu bar at the bottom of the page. In Ver 2008, I can't seem to get this to happen. If I want 2 drawings open, I have to minimize one to see the other. Anyone have any idea how to change this?

Hi,

I think you are looking for the TASKBAR command. Try setting it to 1.

As per the above person with the same problem, I've tried the TASKBAR command set it to 1 and 0 and it still opens up multiple drawings in separate windows. Any clues???

Hi, and welcome to AUGI! :)

How are you opening your drawings? Through double clicking in MS Explorer, or through the File/Open interface?

If the prior, THIS THREAD (http://forums.augi.com/showthread.php?t=48126) and related links may help.

This actually a completely different question from the original (but,curiously, this is the 4th time it's been asked this week)
