Having situations where clicking on modeless userform is causing the document that had focus on the opposite monitor (using dual monitors) to not only to lose focus but to also minimize to the task bar.

When move both document and userform onto the same monitor, behavior is normal with the one that has focus moving to the front.

This has happened a couple of times recently on a Win7 Excel 2010 machine and just tested now on Win10 Excel 2016 and happened here as well. BUT, after about 15 mins of testing behavior is back to normal.

This is consistent with behavior in a couple of macros - in one case behavior seemed to simply stop on its own. In another, its persisting.

Any suggestions???

If anyone else has this issue - discovered behavior is normal when userform is NOT on "main display" monitor. This OK for my purposes, but would be nice to have work properly on both monitors.
