Orcad Capture and Dual Monitors

Has anybody succeeded to place two different schematics on two monitors. ver 9.3 will not let me drag one schematic page over to the other screen.

Don't let nvidia nview control the monitors and make two desktops-- just set it up as one large desktop that spans both screen. You can only run one instance of Orcad Capture (unlike Layout which lets you run multiple instances and corrupts everything in both, ha ha). Then just stretch the Capture window to span both monitors and size one schematic in the left and one in the right. Capture does let you open multiple projects within that one instance of the program running. It should not be too hard to turn off the dual head desktop management in nView or whatever card you are using. I never install nView so I don't really know how to do it--- but I do have to put up with dialog boxes always popping up cut in half by the two screens.
