In the Quicken program settings, Quick Tabs was turned on and placed on the right side of the screen. The purpose of Quick Tabs is to allow you to move around the program easily. Every time you open an account register (checking, cash, etc.), the program adds a Quick Tab to the list. This allows you to go from one account register to another with the click of your mouse. If you open an account register, but don’t want it added to the Quick Tabs list, simply close the account register by Clicking the X in the upper right corner of the register. This closes the account register and removes the account name from the Quick Tabs list.
If you want to minimize (close) the Quick Tabs list so that the account register stretches completely across the computer screen, move your cursor into the Quick Tabs column and Right Click (click the right mouse button) to get a drop down list of available options. Click on Minimize QuickTabs to close the Quick Tabs column. Minimizing the Quick Tabs list may be useful when you are entering data into the register. To show Quick Tabs again, move the cursor to the far right side of your computer screen, right Click to get the drop list again and Click on Restore QuickTabs and the Quick Tabs column will reappear.
