* An ongoing debate between Ed Vance and All rages on ...   
      
   After I re-size a window I find that if I maximize it then return to normal it   
   will retain it's dimensions next time. Maybe something along those lines will   
   help {shrug}   
      
    EV> IIRC when I used Windows 3.1 I could move the mouse pointer to the   
    EV> square on the left side of a Title Bar and hold some kind of key   
    EV> combination such as: Shift or CTRL etc. and then Right-Click on   
    EV> that square to Close the window, and after that where ever that   
    EV> window was positioned on the W3.1 Desktop at that time, it would open   
    EV> at that same spot the next time I clicked on the Icon to open it.   
      
    EV> Some time ago I started having the XP Taskbar on the Right Side of   
    EV> the Desktop.   
    EV> With that setting I could see 4 icons in a row on the taskbar.   
      
    EV> I decided to Unlock that Taskbar Setting and increase the size so   
    EV> 5 icons were in each row.   
      
    EV> Since then I have tried over and over to change where one program   
    EV> appears when I use it because every time I use it a very small   
    EV> fraction of the Right Side of its window is covered by my new   
    EV> enlarged Taskbar.   
      
    EV> It isn't real bothersome, but it does bother me some after I have   
    EV> tried repeatedly to Right-Click on the icon on the Left Side of   
    EV> the Title Bar and selected Move and then moved it where I wanted it   
    EV> to be, but the next time I open the program it doesn't know that I   
    EV> told it to stay in a newer place, and it opens in the old place it   
    EV> was before I increased the size of the Taskbar.   
      
    EV> I can see 2/3rds of the X-Box at the Right of the Title Bar, and   
    EV> in fact, I don't even close the program with that X, it has a BIG   
    EV> Exit button that I always use when I close the program, and 90% of   
    EV> the button is visible to me even though it is located on the Right   
    EV> Side of the programs window.   
      
    EV> Does anyone know how to tell XP to OBEY when I put that programs   
    EV> window where I want it to be on the Desktop?   
      
    EV> While I was typing this message I thought, Ed, why don't you resize   
    EV> the Taskbar back to where only 4 icons were shown in a row,   
    EV> then open the program and move it to the left a little, close it,   
    EV> and open it again to see if it stayed in the new spot, and then   
    EV> resize the Taskbar again to show 5 icons in a row.   
      
    EV> I am not going to do it right now since I wrote all of the above.   
    EV> I am going to wait and see if anyone can tell me it can be done,   
    EV> and how!.   
      
    EV> If it can't I will then try my NEW IDEA!.   
    EV> TIA!
