Was using 98SE but now on XP. Taskbar has grown in
height . Icons are small but I still can't resize. I need
the space lol Any help appreciated thanks Pauline
 
Pauline,

Right-click the Taskbar and uncheck "Lock the taskbar". Now resize the taskbar and lock it again. If you're unable to resize the taskbar, see this tip from Keith Miller.

I see the behavior you describe if the double-height bar is split horizontally (programs on top,
quicklaunch on bottom or vice-versa). But if I grab one and move it so the groups are split
vertically (programs on left, quicklaunch on right, etc), I can then resize it to single height.
Try that & see if it works for you.

In other words, place your mouse-arrow over the upper edge of the Taskbar
until it forms a double arrow and then pull it down so that you obtain a
single band. Isn't that what you wanted? Hans
