>Looking at the Task Pane app (which, if recollection serves comes with the source code) there may be a way for Walter to do what he wants. If the Task Pane window isn't wide enough to display the entire tool bar, additional items are displayed by click on the chevron towards the right of tool bar. This is very much like a menu. If I were Walter, how this is done might be revealed by examining the source.

Just catching up on my UT reading, George, and I noticed an interesting word you supplied here: "Chevron" - right out of medieval heraldry <g>

I never knew what to call those funny things, but I do now.
