Auto-hide menus

[Julie]

I've set my OfficeXP preferences to show complete menus
(vs. hiding lesser-used items). My Windows Start menu
continues to auto-hide. I was under the impression that
the Start menu takes its cue from the Office preferences.
I want to see my whole Start menu. How the heck do I fix
this?

Julie;

Right click the Start button | Properties |

Scroll down to and UNCheck both of these
*Scroll Programs |
**Use Personalized Menus
OK | Apply | OK

[*Specifies whether to display the items on the Programs menu as one long
scrolling menu or as
horizontal pages. Depending on your screen resolution, if you have more than
29 or 38 programs
installed, and you select to have one long scrolling menu, you can access
the programs you don't see
by clicking the arrow at each end of the list of programs.]

[**Specifies whether to turn on Personalized Menus.
Personalized Menus keeps the Programs menu clean by hiding items you haven't
used recently, while still keeping other programs easily accessible. You
can gain access to hidden programs by clicking the down arrow at the bottom
of the Programs menu.]
