On computer A below, I just can't get my Locals and Immediate windows to dock side by side (as they were before I accidently moved them). I can only get them to dock one above the other. I've tried the usual method (dragging them down until a grey outline of a vertical rectangle appears then releasing the mouse button).
On computer B below they are correctly docked.
Any ideas? Maybe a registry modification?

If it's any consolation I have had the same issue at times (more than once), my solution was just to have patience and just keep trying move and place the window until the gray outline pops where you want it. You just have to find that elusive sweet spot. Patience and persistence pays off.

In this registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Visual Basic\6.0
has anyone tried deleting 'Dock' then runing VB6?
