Editing enlarging etc All Programs Menu on XP

[Harold Climer]

I have so many programs on the All Programs menu, I can not see
the complete names of the programs listed in the right-most column. Is
the a way to see these? Can I make a long list instead of tileing the
program names?

It is a *terrible* idea to post your detailed personal information on
Usenet where thousands of people who might Not Be Nice will see it, not
to mention the spammers. And Google Groups is forever (or a very long
time). You are posting on Usenet, not in a private cozy place. Here is
an explanation of that:

To answer your question, you can organize your Start Menu. Right-click
on the Start button and choose Explore. You'll get the familiar
two-paned Explorer window. You'll see all the programs in your Start
Menu. You can make folders and right-click/drag/move the shortcut icons
into the folders.

For instance, you might want a folder for Graphics, one for Office, one
for Internet, etc. Put the shortcuts to the various programs in the
appropriate folders.

Right click on your start button and left click on Properties. Select the
"Customize" button. Click on the Advanced tab and in the center section
scroll down to "Scroll Programs". That should make it more usable.

Good Luck!
