Move taskbar buttons

[Orrie]

On my old Windows 98SE computer, I had a neat utility named "Button Boogie"
that let me move the buttons on the taskbar at the bottom of the screen. I
loved it. Instead of being stuck with having the buttons arranged in the
order in which I opened those programs or docs, I could line them up in any
way that made sense to me. For example, if I was working on a Word document,
and pulling stuff from two or three others, I would move the document that I
was working on to position #1 on the far left, so I wouldn't have to hunt
for it if I a lot of stuff open and a lot of buttons displayed.

Like Win 98SE, Windows XP doesn't offer this nifty capability in its native
form, and the neat little program doesn't work with XP.

Does anyone know how of an add-on or a hidden trick I can use to shift the
buttons around in Win XP?

Thank you.
