Displaying application on the Tool Bar
Try this.
Right click the Taskbar | Properties | Taskbar tab | Under Taskbar appearance UNCheck: Group similar taskbar buttons Group similar taskbar buttons [[Displays taskbar buttons for files opened by the same program in the same area of the taskbar. In addition, if the taskbar becomes so crowded with buttons that the width of the buttons shrinks beyond a certain width, then the buttons for the same program are collapsed into a single button. Clicking the button lets you access the document you want. Right-clicking the button lets you close all the documents you want.]] Description of the "Group Similar Taskbar Buttons" Option http://support.microsoft.com/kb/281629 -- Hope this helps.

Displaying application on the Tool Bar
Wesley,
No that wasn't the fix. Still have ther up and down scroll keys next to the application and I get to each application by using the scroll keys. Worst thing is, is that I don't know how I got it. Any other ideas welcome. Regards Sandy "Wesley Vogel" wrote: Try this.
