Reinstate the Office Toolbar. Quicklaunch takes up space on my e.

[Simon]

Why has Microsoft ditched the Office Toolbar with Office 2003? The
quicklaunch bar on my Startbar takes up space, and is less flexible and
friendly

 

[Bob I]

So drag and drop the Quicklaunch somewhere else.

Why not the Office Toolbar?

1) Resource hog
2) Unsightly
3) Obsolete

You're doing it wrong. You don't use quick launch! You use the help and
support centre and learn how to make a toolbar. You then find the folder
that contains the Office Start Menu icons and make it into a toolbar. Takes
up no space whatsoever (well hardly).
