Table dialog box not showing in FM12, unstructured

After inserting tables into headers (in master pages), I can't see the Insert Table dialog box when I try to insert a table on a body page. If I hit Escape, normal function resumes. If I hit Enter, I get a table, with the current values in the dialog box. Any idea why it's not showing ??

I figured it out ...
Multiple monitor setup. The dialog box was showing on the laptop screen, not on either of the large monitors.

Thanks for your help.

The Insert Table window is a modal one, which disappears after a table has been inserted. Use the menu entry Table > Insert or the shortcut <esc> t i to display the window again. Many of FM's dialogs are sticky, i.e. they keep the last entered values.
