Residental Energy Credits 06-07

[GTS1101]

I know this is late in the tax season but I need some clarification and I can't seem to find it in the IRS instructions. When claiming windows and doors as energy credits do sliding glass doors go under windows or under exterior doors? I would assume doors but I am thinking they could go under windows too? Do you have any suggestions?

A sliding DOOR is a DOOR. But a lot of the time one half slides and the other half is stationery, but I would treat this as one unit -- a door. After all, you need the stationery part to slide the moving part into, do you not?
