I don't have any problem moving palettes to the 2nd monitor with Vectorworks, Autocad, Photoshop, Illustrator , words, ect but I am having problem moving Archicad palettes to the 2nd monitor.

Is there anything I need to do to enable that moving in archicad?

Can anyone please help.

I don't' Know about AC 7 r3, but with AC8.1 the AC "window" has to be in "Restore down" mode not maximized. I call this tile mode. once in this mode stretch "window" onto second monitor. The default AC window background is gray. once this is stretched to second monitor the palettes can be moved, as well as the 3D window if you like. One thing that I have noticed with my setup is that sometimes the Navigator palette does not "stick" once file is re-opened. also the quicklayers palette seems to never stay put.

Hope this helps.
