It's not easy at all, in this case, g. Some systems it's easy, some
it's not, and in some it's too *danged* easy, and you're forever
accidentally screwing up the Taskbar/Toolbar configuration. I like that
in WinXP, you can Lock the taskbar and prevent accidental rearranging or
resizing..

Gary, Hugh and Mikhail,

Thanks to all of you for the quick replies and the "fix." Like so

much with
PCs and Windows, it's all so easy when you know how to do it.

John,

Move your mouse next to the right of the Taskbar slider, that is

near
Start button, and hold down left mouse button. Your cursor has to

turn
to the four-arrows one (probably you'll be need to try that not

once --
to catch this region); when it will -- move Taskbar straight to the
right, over the head of QuickLaunch bar, and release mouse button.

Resize Taskbar after that, using its left slider.

Using Windows 98SE, I temporarily closed the Quick Launch Toolbar by

right
clicking the taskbar, selecting Toolbars and unchecking Quick Launch
Toolbar.

After I re-enabled the Quick Launch Toolbar, it isn't located where

it
previously was. Initially, it was just to the right of the Start

button
(which is at the lower left corner of the screen). After closing

and then
reopening the Quick Launch Toolbar, it opened at the right of the

taskbar,
just left of the task tray. If I drag the Quick Launch Toolbar to

the
left,
it stops an inch or so before the Start button and won't go any

further.
There is a space in the taskbar between the Start button and the

Quick
Launch Toolbar.

When I have programs open, the taskbar icons for the open programs

are now
to the LEFT of the Quick Launch Toolbar, not to the right as they

have
always been. The program icons are in the space between the Start

button
and the Quick Launch Toolbar.

How do I move the Quick Launch Toolbar back to its original position

just
to
the right of the Start button? I should note that I have the

taskbar set
to
one row high, I have no other Toolbars selected and have not created

any
custom toolbars.

I have tried everything I can think of to fix this. I've looked on

the MS
KB and found nothing.

Can someone help me, please?

Thank you.

John
