Microsoft Suggestion!

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

Greetings,

I am running Win XP Home SP2. I think the OS is great and has performed
very well (although my Help and Support Center would not load this morning
for some reason - I have submitted a help request-post in that regard on the
respective usenet newsgroup just now, this morning).

My suggestion is as follows, I like using the taskbar quick-launch icons. -
however, the way the icon selection is, there is not really the level of
organization possible that I desire.

Here is the problem, I like having shortcuts to several folders - if icons
that are comprised of symbols/labels like A, B, C, D, E, etc., and numbers
also, - this would allow me to have my folder icons very easily display
their identity! ! ! ! With the current icon selection of shell32.dll etc.,
the icons are all symbolic picture type identifiers.

My suggestion is to add icons displaying basic alphanumeric letters/numbers.

Thank you.

Why?

Do you think Microsoft has someone reading this group for people's
suggestions?

You should at least spam protect you email.

He possible excepting email from Microsoft. He must be a new person.
