Default Quick Launch Toolbar App reordering

I would like to be able to customize the order of the applications as they
appear in the Quick Launch tool bar, and especially those that show on the
bar at all times without having to click the >> button.

1.) Right-click and drag them in any order you like.

2.) Uncheck 'Lock the Taskbar' and adjust the width accordingly.

To change the oirder, just drag them into any order you want.

To see all the icons and not the >>, drag the divider at the end of the
Quick Launch Bar to the right. Make sure the Task Bar is unlocked first.

cdrobsonjr,
In addition what have said, you can also rename the shortcuts in the Quick
Launch bar, adding a numerical value and space to the name.
Right click shortcut> Rename> Change the name.
I have the following in my Quick Launch.
01 Launch Internet Explorer Browser.
02 Launch Newsletter Identity via script.
03 Launch OE Main Identity via script.
04 Show Desktop.
05 Launch OE News Reader via script.
06 Yahoo Messenger
07 Aim Messenger
etc.....

So when I right click the list and chose "Sort by Name", this order comes up
automatically.
