The "RUN" program

[Carole LaRocca]

I do not have a RUN program "visible" (or invisible for
that matter) that I can access at start-up. How do I
find the program and display it at start-up along with
the other programs listed.

And thanx.

Right-click on your Taskbar and select:
Properties > Start Menu > Customize and place
a check next to "Display Run", click OK and APPLY.

There is no RUN program, per se. It is simply a line in your Start
Menu for placing programs for execution without having to use
shortcuts or browsing through a directory tree. It can be turned
off under Properties for the Start Menu. Right-click on the Taskbar
and choose Properties. Then select Start Menu/Customize/Advanced
and check or uncheck items as desired. If you are using the Classic
Start Menu, the choices are on the first screen after selecting
Customize.
