I want to drag program shortcut icons on my desktop to the Taskbar to create single-click startup icons.

I have unlocked the Taskbar.

However, when I drag one of the icons onto the Taskbar, a circle with a line through it appears (i.e. you can't do this!) and when I release the icon, it just springs back to its position on my desktop.

This is a new computer - just arrived. I had no problem doing this with my two other computers.

Thanks.

D.

Edited: Sorted! Taskbar was set to Google Taskbar instead of Quicklaunch. Must be a DELL thing.

ps. Windows XP Pro
