Default XP Toolbar

What "Toolbar" in Windows XP are you referring to?

Internet Explorer?, ... Windows Explorer?,... Notepad?,... ...or,
perhaps you mean the "Taskbar" at the very bottom of the Windows XP
desktop?,...

The latter is called the Quick Launch ToolBar, and is [re] activated by
"right-clicking" on an *empty* area of the taskbar at the base of your
desktop, and choosing :

"Toolbars" "Quick Launch"


I've just turned this off and on by following your instructions, and -
thanks very much, though I know you didn't intend it! - it has now
shrunk. I can see six icons (two rows of three, since I have a
double-height toolbar), with next to it a button with "" on it, which
when clicked, pops up - temporarily the others. How do I get it back (to
where all my quick launch icons are permanently visible, with less space
for task buttons) (-:? I've tried dragging that "" button.

hope this is of some help...

Assuming the OP _did_ mean the QL area, he maybe meant how you actually
get further icons into it ...

How do I put icons onto the toolbar? I did it on one laptop but cannot
seem to do it on another.

No, I haven't changed my mind - I'm perfectly happy with the one I have, thank
you.
