The tool bar has always shown the application side by side and the grouped
simialr taskbar buttons.

This has changed and now I have a single application task bar with scroll
buttons to get to outlook or word or exel etc and I cannot return it to
normal, please can someone advise me how to get it back to the seprate
applications side by side.

Try this.

Right click the Taskbar | Properties | Taskbar tab |
Under Taskbar appearance UNCheck: Group similar taskbar buttons

Group similar taskbar buttons
[[Displays taskbar buttons for files opened by the same program in the same
area of the taskbar. In addition, if the taskbar becomes so crowded with
buttons that the width of the buttons shrinks beyond a certain width, then
the buttons for the same program are collapsed into a single button.
Clicking the button lets you access the document you want. Right-clicking
the button lets you close all the documents you want.]]

Wesley,

No that wasn't the fix. Still have ther up and down scroll keys next to the
application and I get to each application by using the scroll keys. Worst
thing is, is that I don't know how I got it.

Any other ideas welcome.

Regards

Sandy
