How do you permanently change the order that a application starts when in the
HKLM\Software\Windows\CurentVersion\Run.

The 'Run' keys start asynchronously rather than sequentially. To start
applications sequentially create a shell script something like this and
place it in your \Startup directory.

-------------mystartup.cmd-------------
start "" "D:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\outlook.exe"
start "" "D:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\word.exe"
start "" "D:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\excel.exe"
---------------end file------------------

hanks Dave,

Lets say I have five programs that I want to start at start up in certain
order. Would a shell script still be the way. Thanks again.
