Occurs to me that 2" is about the width of QuickLaunch... maybe uncheck
it in Toolbars. rpl Heather wrote: Tried that......it doesn't work. There is at least two inches between Start and the Quick Launch bar......it just won't budge!! I have tried to see what in heck is stopping this, but no joy. And thanks for your offer btw.....will write later.

Asked in the OE group how on earth to get my Address Book back......300 names......aarrgghh!! It keeps telling me it has imported it successfully, but it hasn't. Majik or Steve should be able to help. Tried 5 different ways to import it, but it ain't working. HOWEVER.....I managed to lost my Quick Launch thingie on the bottom left by Start......says it can't create it now by right clicking on the taskbar. I was moving OE over one.....but had noticed this Application Data Folder in Applog earlier and didn't stop to think about it. It was a hidden folder and I had a devil of a time importing......that's OK now. Any suggestions on the Quick Launch Toolbar?? *We are not amused* at the moment.....wry grin. Heather |

Hey Heather!
Kidding, coz I am not ready to move up to XP at the moment......however the thought of it is enticing. You can't be any bigger coward than I am! You won't be sorry to get up to XP. Lawd knows I held out long after I even had it installed on a separate drive. I just could not get up the never to use it. But, what with PA Bear (and a few others I won't mention who hang out here) egging me on and giving elbows to the ribs every chance they got, I was finally able to work up the courage to actually start using it. I have the XP Pro with SP2, and I have not had many problems at all, and nothing on the scale of some of the horror stories I have seen and heard. I truly believe that having the SP2 already set up with the program eliminated a lot of the problems from a separate install. But, I really can't speak on that as I have not had to do that. I now have WinME, W2k and Xp Pro on my machine, each on it's own drive, so now I am triple booting. Each has it's special points and drawbacks. I am using the WinME as my backup mostly now, as it has the SR and I am pretty sure I can trust it. Not having had to use the one with XP yet (knocking on my head) I don't know how well it might work. So, if it is worth anything at all from me, I would advise that you keep the WinME on a separate drive and just get a new drive for the XP if you haven't already got that in mind. I have found few programs that won't work on them both if need be. Jan MS MVP - Windows (IE/OE) Smiles are meant to be shared, that's why they're so contagious. |

First of all.....CONGRATULATIONS on becoming an MVP!!!! There is hope for
the rest of us.....(big grin). Seriously, that is just wonderful!! And yes, I plan on getting a second hard drive and dual booting.....if not a new computer. Just about had it with this one since I tried to upgrade it. Hope we see you around here some more, now that you have a TITLE!! Best.....Heather "Jan Il" wrote in message ... Hey Heather!

At first the idea of more than one hard drive bothered me, but, the idea of having only XP to rely on bothered me even more! :-) Title? I have a Title? Then I guess I have to come up with some rules for address....huh.... Let's see.....Ladyship....Your Grace.....My Grace...... :-))) Jan MS MVP - Windows (IE/OE) Smiles are meant to be shared, that's why they're so contagious. "Jan Il" wrote in message ... Hey Heather!
