... What do you mean "the prog and the recent - but no file" ? How are you pinning Excel to the Taskbar ? Excel pinned by right clicking and then "pin to TB" That works fine and stays together with recent files. But when I drag, say, my file called ***** to the TB it stays for a while but after a day or so that file is no longer pinned. Same thing with MS Publisher. -- John the West Ham fan |

What exactly is your ***** file ? If it isn't an application exe file then whatever program that opens it will be pinned. For example, if I drag a text note to the Tasbar then Notepad will be pinned. If I drag a pdf document to the Taskbar then Adobe Reader will be pinned. Isn't that how yours works? |

For instance, yesterday pinned a file .xls to Excel and it is still there today. But it will disappear sometime soon. I'll let you know when.

A week gone by tomorrow and this time the files have held and are still pinned - what have I done different? This is the retail home prem and before was the ultimate RC!
