Unable to move a window

One of my applications in Windows XP is driving me crazy!
It always opens with the titlebar off the screen so I am unable to move it.
Using a keyboard short cut I can maximise the window but this is not what I want.
Any ideas how I can prevent this from happening?

    Right click on the icon in the tasbar, select "Move", use the cursor keys to move the window and validate with enter.

    Thanks Cricri

    That helps me manage the problem but unfortunately when I reopen the application it reopens with the titlebar still off screen!
    Any ideas?

    When you have moved the window to the position that you want it, press shift when closing the window.
    :doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:
