Why do minimized workbooks in Excell not show file names?

[george]

When I minimize files or workbooks in Excell they are lined up at the bottom
of the screen. I thought that when I pass my cursor over them it would
provide the file's or workbook's name. As of now, the only way to know
which workbook is which, is to maximize them. I have to be doing something
wrong here.

Do you mean on the taskbar?
Mine shows the filename on the tabs. I use Windows XP Home and Professional with Office XP and 2003.

It even shows the filenames in Excel when the workbook is mininized in Excel with Excel still full screen.
