task bar items

    Is there a setting which will force Vista to always stack similar task bar
    objects?
    For instance, when I am opening different folders in Outlook, Vista will
    start laying out each folder individually on the task bar. Then, when some
    magic number of Outlook items is reached, Vista will finally stack Outlook
    objects.

    Can I reduce the magic number or, ideally, set Vista to always stack?

    Thanks,
    Doug

    Hello Doug,

    OPTION TWO in the tutorial below should be able to allow this for you.



    Hope this helps,
    Shawn
