OL 2003: Office Shortcut Bar and "New Task" "New Contact" etc. buttons?

[jcwCT]

With Office XP and earlier versions I found it handy to move the "New Task"
"New Contact" etc. buttons in the Office Shortcut Bar folder to my Quick
Launch toolbar. That allowed my to create new items with just one click when
Outlook was closed. I just upgraded to Office 2003, and the Office Shortcut
Bar is no longer there. That is no loss... I never used it, but I would like
to recreate those shortcuts in my Quick Launch toolbar. Any suggestions?

the proper command lines are listed in the Help file - use /c ipm.note
format. Also, try knockout - http://sunflowerhead.com/software/knockout/.

Thanks, again Diane. I will look into both creating my own shortcuts using
"/c ipm.note" as well as knockout.
