Customizing the Desktop
When you customize the Windows taskbar or Quick Launch toolbar, or create new toolbars, consider the following:
Decide which files, folders, programs, and Internet shortcuts your workgroup uses most frequently.
Determine the best method of presentation for your workgroup. For example, if your workgroup consists of writers working on a specific Microsoft Word document, you might want to create a shortcut to Microsoft Word or to that document on the Quick Launch toolbar. If your workgroup regularly accesses a folder of related files, programs, or Internet shortcuts, you might want to create a toolbar containing the contents of that folder and place it on the Windows taskbar or as a floating toolbar on the desktop.
Before you create new toolbars, you need to group the files, programs, and Internet shortcuts that your workgroup uses most frequently into one or more appropriately named folders. A new toolbar consists of the contents of a folder on a local or network drive; Windows 2000 uses the folder name for the toolbar name.
