I am posting this for a friend who is a recent convert to XP from 9X.
This individual ustilizes his system in a manner that necessitates up to 10
different windows open at the same time.
In 9X each separate window was shown in the task bar and he could click on
any particular one to bring that window to the forefront.
In XP he states that after opening 5 the tasks bunch into one box on the
task bar that he must click on( which opens a box) where he mat then click
on the window he needs to bring to the front.

The question is this...Is there a setting that he can change to keep the
tasks from"bunching" in the task bar?

Thank you
 
Hi

Right-click the Taskbar, select Properties and then uncheck 'Group similar taskbar buttons'. Apply>OK.
 
Thank you, I had expected it was something that simple, but since I don't
yet use XP I wasn't sure.
