i never had this problem before. I guess you solve one thing and i created
another
yes i hide when minimized so that i do NOT have a window in the task bar
(i.e. in between the quick lanch and the clock) but that way the windows
manager icon remains in the right hand side by the clock.
if anyone knows how to bring it back and name it properly i would appreciate
it. Could it be because it got named incorreclty after the procedure?
Thanks again,
l
