System menu on taskbar

I have two monitors at work (using my laptop as the primary display) and use win's extended desktop settings. When I move pl/sqldev to the second monitor, close it, disable the second monitor, then open it at home, the login dialog appears fine on my laptop's screen but the program is invisible when it's launched (positioned off the primary display) because it's being restored to where the second monitor was. For most programs that do this, I can right-click the app icon on the taskbar, click Move, and hold the right-arrow key to move it until it's visible. With pl/sqldev (and all Delphi programs), right-clicking the icon on the system bar doesn't have a Move command. so I edit its left position in the registry to make it visible again.

So, my request is to either verify that pl/sqldev is on-screen when launching, or add the Move command to the taskbar icon's menu. For the latter, there's a component on Colin Wilson's site that does this (http://www.wilsonc.demon.co.uk/delphi.htm). It's named TStandardSystemMenu and is in the Miscellaneous Components section.

Thanks, and sorry about the long post.
