Re: Adding Programs to MS Office Shortcut Bar

Thanks for the quick reply DL. I like the idea of putting the two shortcuts
to the win quick launch bar but I have heard that having too many items in
the win systems tray is not a good idea. Does that hold true for the win
quick launch bar?

Thanks for the help. Mike

Doesnt make any difference to startup as they are only shortcuts, and its

PS The office toolbar is not a win desktop function, but an Office one
Alternatively you could add shortcuts to the win quick launch tool bar
(bottom left of win task bar)

I'm not sure if this question should be posted here or in an MS Office
Forum
but since it's a Windows Desktop function, I hope it's ok to post here.

I use the MS Office Shortcut Bar (displayed at the top of my desktop)
often.
I like to add several freqently used programs (Paint Shop Pro and
Wordpad )
to the Shortcut Bar by creating a shortcut on my desktop and dragging and
dropping them into the Toolbar. I got to thinking that this could cause
some
problems for the computer on startup.

So, my question is: Is it harmful to the computer to add program
shortcuts
to the MS Office Shortcut Bar by dragging and dropping the shortcut from
my
desktop to the Shortcut Bar?

I like having certain programs in the Shortcut Bar because when I have
other
programs open, the Shortcut Bar remains on top so I can launch the
programs
without having to minimize the sceen/s I am currently on.

Thanks for the help. Mike
