Excel Viewer and PWB as Shell

Has anyone else used Excel Viewer with PWB as the shell?

On a test PC we are about to roll out, I have this environment running. It opens Excel douments in the PWB window, but opens a seperate Excel Viewer window in the middle of the page. The Viewer window can't be minimized, and the PWB window can't seem to come to the fore.

I can see the document, even scroll up and down and click inside it, but the viewer stays there in the front.

The seperate window appears when using plain IE as well, but it doesn't hog the screen, it stays in the background.

I suspect one fix would be to set AlwaysOnTop to true, but I don't want to do that because of negative effects in other areas. 'AlwaysOnTop=false' isn't like saying AlwaysOnBottom is it?

Ta,
Greg

Always on Top sets PWB to the top most window, but it does not effect the Always on Bottom. Do you have Always on Bottom set to True in the INI file?

How foolish of me....

I didn't even look for that.

Sorry to waste your time.
