Default Killing the split window


xl2kpro & xl'03
One workbook has the split is turned on permanently.
The option in the Window drop down says "Split" but the split slider on the vertical
scroll bar still shows.
This workbook is shuffled between work (xl'03) and home (xl2kpro) and, at work I used the
"Compare side by side" option which may have triggered this problem.

If the "Split" option is available under Window, this means Split is not
enabled and the slider is visible and usable.

If Split was enabled you would see "Remove Split" under Window and slider
would be gone.

Sounds to me like all is as it should be and you have no problem.

Unless you have Window>Freeze Panes enabled and perceive this to be a problem?

<Embarrassed Sigh>
My problem is advanced years!
I typically have "Freeze Panes" enabled on all my workbooks so I do not see the split
screen slider.
This one workbook, however, doesn't have the freeze option set so I became confused (too
many late nights).

Sorry for the waste of time.
