Win7, Two Monitors and SSMS

  • I use two monitors, and IT just migrated me to Win7 (from XP). For some reason when I move from tying something on one monitor.. to SSMS on the other monitor I have to Grab the window and give it a shake. Otherwise nothing I type gets into the window (it goes no place).

    Has anyone else seen this... how did you fix? My Jr DBA was migrated too and is having the exact same issue.

  • I just click in the window on Monitor #2 (SSMS) to change the focus to the window I want to type in and then type away.

    That is the way it worked in XP, but in the win7.. that does not work.

  • Funny I am running Win 7 and typing this on my second monitor. I have been running this Win 7 setup w/Dual monitor for two years now so it does work - Dell Core i5 Laptop and HP Flat Screen Monitor #2 w/SSMS 2014, 2012, 2008R2 and 2k5.
