HELP!! I lost my Command window!!

HELP!! I lost my Command window!!

HELP!! I lost my Command window!!

(OP)
I don't know how I did it but I was just moving an object at the bottom of my screen and my mouse somehow grabbed my command window and through it off the screen!  I closed the drawing and re-opened it thinking this would solve the problem but now every time I open Autocad the command window is not there.  I have also done the tools, options, display thing and it says that I should have 3 lines in my command window but I have no command window!  Are there any commands that I can input to bring it back to my screen?

RE: HELP!! I lost my Command window!!

Make the screen size bigger. For example, if it's 768 x 1024, make it 864 x 1152.  You should be able to see it now.  To prevent this from happening in the future, get Quikpik by Manusoft, a free "nagware" that locks the toolbars and command line from unintentional dragging.

Thanks Guys.

I also spent a frustrating hour or so with the same problem. I did a search before I was about to do a posting and found this.

Thanks Again!!!
