Notification area (system tray)

[George]

(Cross-posted in microsoft.public.windowsxp.general).

I used to have 6 icons in the Notification area (system tray) in one single
row. After a drive reformat and reinstall of XP, the 6 icons are now in two
rows of 3 each, and I can't figure out how to get them back into 1 row as
before. I know it's no big deal, but if anyone can point me in the right
direction, I'll appreciate it.

Thanks,

George

Your Quick Launch toolbar icons could bigger (double in size) than your
Notification area icons. If so, rightclick on an empty space on your taskbar
and click to remove the check mark on "Lock the Taskbar" if its checked.
Right click on the left dotted border on the Quick Launch toolbar right of
Start button. On the context menu that appears click "View" (top most) then
click "Small Icons" if "Large Icon" is checked. That should bring the Quick
Launch toolbar icons smaller and the Notification area icons to a single row.
