Vista Home Premium and auto starting programs

P

pat

hi,

in Windows XP i was able to add a file to the startup folder and, when
booting up, have windows run that file (it was a Lotus Organizer
file).

how can i do this in Vista? (Lotus Organizer is an old, old app and
does not have an option to auto run at startup.)

cheers

pat
