Eleanor, I think what you really need is a shortcut to OE from its desktop
icon.
You can create one from the properties sheet. Then whatever else you have
running, you can launch OE with a key press. No need to have it on the
task bar.
HTH, Ted

I am not wanting to open Outlook Express, minamise it and put it on the
task bar. I just want it on the task bar so that if i DECIDE TO OPEN IT,
i CAN GET AT IT EASILY RATHER THAN CLOSING DOWN OR MINAMISING THE
APPLICATINS i AM WORKING WITH TO GET AT IT ON THE DESKTOP OR HAVING TO GO
THROUGH THE START MENU FOR IT.
pLEASE DO UNDERSTAND THAT i APPRECIATE EVERYONE'S COMMENTS AND UNDERSTAND
THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE WORKING ENTIRELY FROM THE KEYBOARD AND NOT USING THE
MOUSE.

Minimizing OE will place its icon on the taskbar. If you use the mouse,
just click on the minimize simbol on the right top corner of the window,
or in the OE window press alt+space and enter on minimize. It will work
for almost all programs.

That is not what I am looking for Ibrahim. I might have 3 word
documents open and then I might want to open Outlook Express. I would
find it very handy to use the mouose and go to the task bar and click on
the Outlook Express Icon without having to go throught the Start menu or
minamizing all my Word documents to click on the Outlook Express icon on
the desktop.

OK but you still haven't told me how to put it on the task bar, the
Icon I mean.

Hi Eleanor.
No, sorry, I'm misreading your message. When you said the task
bar, I thought you might be referring to the system tray that sits next to
it. You can with the aid of this program Hide OE put outlook express in
the system tray. When you minimise it, rather than becoming another task
in the taskbar clogging up your task switching, it tucks itself away so
you can keep it open and thus monitor your mail much more effectively.

Oh no of course not, it is quite a simple thing and I've had
someone do it for me within minutes. I only want to be able to click on
it form the task bar to open it.

Hi Eleanor.
You can't, you need to use a separate program called Hide OE.
Do a search in google for it, but download it from the R2 studios website
as there are a few utilities around and not all of them are free or
accessible.
