windows in taskbar
I want to be able to have all my excel windows in the taskbar. I set that in
properties for the taskbar but when I go to tools, options and view, windows in taskbar is not there for me to select. Has anyone had this problem? Can someone tell me how to fix this. Thanks. |
Windows in taskbar is an option that was added in xl2k. What version of excel
are you using? jrlatt wrote: I want to be able to have all my excel windows in the taskbar.

Is there a way to make the "Windows in the Taskbar" saved as a default in office2k? It seems like I am always having to go in and recheck this after I receive a new excel file (I'm assuming the creator doesn't have this checked).

I think this is a setting for you--not the pc.
But if you open a workbook that's shared (looked for Shared in the title bar), then there's an bug in xl2k that turns it off. (It was fixed in xl2002.) If that's the case... Saved from a previous post... Is the workbook shared? (A bug in xl2k turns it off for shared workbooks.) You could create a new workbook saved into XLStart (or put this into your personal.xls workbook) and it'll toggle that option each time you open a workbook. In the ThisWorkbook module: Option Explicit Public WithEvents xlApp As Excel.Application Private Sub Workbook_Open() Set xlApp = Application End Sub Private Sub Workbook_Close() Set xlApp = Nothing End Sub Private Sub xlApp_NewWorkbook(ByVal Wb As Workbook) Application.ShowWindowsInTaskbar = True End Sub Private Sub xlApp_WorkbookOpen(ByVal Wb As Workbook) Application.ShowWindowsInTaskbar = True End Sub If you're new to macros, you may want to read David McRitchie's intro at: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/getstarted.htm jfway wrote: Is there a way to make the "Windows in the Taskbar" saved as a default in office2k?
