When I have multiple screens open (ie, I have 2-3 different web pages
open)...instead of being able to view the tab at the bottom of the screen, I
have to move the cursor to the one tab at the bottom and then select which
one of the 2-3 pages I want to view, then select the page by left
clicking...in windows 2000, i am simply able to see all of the screens as a
tab at the bottom of the screen...how do i change my xp settings to do the
same

Grouping taskbar icons, and the number of like windows grouped, can be changed with a registry setting.

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\TaskbarGroupSize
[REG_DWORD]
2 will enable GroupSize automatically if you have two or more similar window,
3 will enable when you have 3,etc.
