O2K - way to send icon to tray?

[StargateFan]

In XP I find that there's a lot less taskbar real estate than before
so would like to send O2K to the tray. How can we do this pls?

Well, no response so don't know what that means. However, I found a
freeware called "The Wonderful Icon" that seems to do this easily.
The neat thing about it is that you can decide when to minimiize to
the tray any app of your choice. You just hold down the Ctrl key
while you minimize and it sends it to the tray. When WI is off,
regular behaviour is assumed. That seems very flexible to me.

Cheers.

Oops. I misread what you wrote. I saw "Outlook 2002" instead of Outlook
2000. You need a third-party tray handler for OL 2000.

Oh. Well, pls ignore my previous response. I actually did find a
freeware to do this, The Wonderful Icon, which is flexible. You can
minimize _any_ program at any time by pressing the control button at
the same time as RIGHT-CLICKING on the minimize button in any app.
When you maximize it comes out of the tray and if you minimize as per
normal, it goes to the taskbar. I find that I'm liking that
flexibility as I minimize to tray only when I need to.

Thanks.
