Adding programs to Startup

[George Demetriou]

Can anyone tell me how I can get Microsoft Outlook to
startup automatically when I switch on my pc?

Thanks George

Make a short cut and move it (the short cut !) to your startup folder

click start > run and type in the following
explorer "c:\documents and settings\%username%\Start menu\Programs\startup"
This will open an explorer window in your start menu's startup folder. You
can now drag and drop shortcuts from your quicklaunch bar or desktop into
this window and close it. When you next log on, all programs contained
within this folder will start up automatically.

Another way is to enable drag and drop on your start menu by using the task
bar properties applet. You can then use the right mouse button to drag and
drop shortcuts around your all programs menu. Drag the shortcut into your
all programs > start up folder and when you release the button, select copy
from the popup cut / copy / paste / cancel menu.

You can get *any* program to start automatically by putting a
shortcut to it in the folder \Documents and Settings\your user
name\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
