At present programs in Startup open in the wrong order (One program requires
another to have been started previously). How do I control the order in
which programs start up?

Thanks.

Instead of starting each of those two (or more) programs individually
(from the startup folder or wherever), load all of them, in the order
you want, from a batch file. If you need one to finish loading before
the other starts, load using the start parameter with the /wait
switch (for more info on Start, go to a CMD window and type start /?).
You can then create a shortcut to the batch file and put it in the
Startup folder.
