    Will 'Documents' pin to taskbar in 10?


    Wonder if this will work in 10?

    Configure Shortcut thusly:
    ====================================
    Target: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 15\root\office15\WINWORD.EXE" C:
    \Users\Pam\Documents\PHONE.DOC

    Start In: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 15\root\office15"
    ==================================
    Drag/pin to the Taskbar??? Click to open???

    Hello windunce,

    It should. If you like, you can also use Quick Launch to add them to as well. :)

    The good...Pin ,docs, txt, pics etc to taskbar YEAH!
    The bad...QL is soooooo small and such a precious piece of desktop real estate
    The ugly...upgrading from the 10 DVD onto a Genuine Activated OS, STILL prompts for keys...sigh.

    Will lay low for a few weeks and see what tricks, tips and tidbits arise to squelch that nasty bug.

    Thanks for your efforts and dedication, it's greatly appreciated.

    Actually QL could be left as a toolbar with a menu that expands open instead of having icons stretched across your taskbar. This would give more space on the taskbar for whatever else you may like to pin to it.
