Topic: Customize the Taskbar

[joudi]

With Windows XP, you can customize your taskbar so you can do everything from one place, including start programs, view documents, and surf the Web.

Simply right-click the background of the taskbar, point to Toolbars, and then click the toolbar you want to add: an Address bar, a Links bar, a toolbar containing all items on your desktop, or the Quick Launch bar.

You can also create your own toolbar from any folder. To create a toolbar from a folder:

· Right-click the background of the taskbar, point to Toolbars, and then click New Toolbar. Navigate to the folder you want. A toolbar containing all items in that folder will be added to your taskbar.

You can drag the new toolbar to any location on your desktop. (But first, you must unblock the task-bar.)

You can also easily remove a toolbar from the taskbar by right-clicking the taskbar and then clicking the item again to remove the check mark.
