Help window in Leopard stuck behind menu bar

M

Since installing Leopard when I open the Help window in any Office program it opens at the top of the desktop and seems to be behind the menu bar. The red, yellow and green buttons are missing/ not visible as well as the rest of the window header. It can't be moved or manipulated in any way. The real problem occurs when trying to close the window. Using keyboard short cuts it first acts on the active window. So in Excel it will close the workbook window when hitting command-W. Then it will work to close the help window. This slows everything down. Any help would be appreciated. Mike

Go into your System Preferences | Displays. Set the resolution to
something crazy. This should force Help to move to somewhere you can see
it. Move it into the center of the screen. Reset your Display to
regular, and Help should continue to be accessible and you can move it
elsewhere.
