I hope this does what you want.  If your taskbar is on the bottom like 
mine, click on the little button for the panel setting, should be on the 
far right.  I think they call that a cashew or something.  It doesn't 
look like a cashew to me tho.  Anyway.  In the menu that pops up, click 
on the screen edge button and while holding the mouse button, drag it to 
where you want it.

I only have a single monitor so I'm not sure how that works but that is 
how I move mine, although mine is on the bottom.  I have considered 
moving it to the top but then again . . . .

I hope that helps.
