Drag a shortcut for OE to the startup folder and it will load at startup.

Hi Larry
I think the OP is wanting it in the right side of the task bar near the
clock.
I don't think it will go there - not tried it, but it will in the left side.
Seems they want it to do two different things - load at start-up or a handy
shortcut?
What you reckon?

Hi Antioch,

They seem to want both--I know how to get it on the left and how to get it
to start automatically, but I have no idea of how to get it to run in the
taskpane.

Hi Larry
It may have been a rash thing to do but I tried drag and drop and tried to
see if there were any choices in help etc - no I do not think it possible.
Those items I have on the right, well I didn't check all of them, just
three, give the option to place on task bar/system bar on the right, for
start-up.
Just have to wait for the OP to come back

PS
Have you looked in update group last couple of days - Black Tuesday
damages - lot of Server 2003's in trouble - if I read the threads correct.

Nah, I've been swamped fixing broken SBS 2003 servers this week. I'd love to
get my hands on whoever approved an update that breaks domain logon for all
users except admins.

Looks like it is time for me to block all servers I admin from allowing
^any^ updates until I test and approve them. I had gotten slack and was
allowing the regular IT guys on location to load critical updates.

Plain and simple, NO update should ever be allowed to change domain security
policy I have implemented.
I felt bad at the first location as I accused the IT guy of screwing with
permissions, then the calls started rolling in as users logged off at other
locations and were blocked from logging back in.

You have my sympathy - Join the queue -

Others with these servers are saying the same - no more auto updating a
bunch at a time

Well it will give them somrthing to do on black Tuesday - download one at a
time on one machine at a time. In a big place, by the time they finish, the
next Tuesday will be upon them
