Adding a taskbar toolbar

[ACalcutt]

I would like to add a office toolbar to the taskbar by script, but from reading online this doesn't seem to be an easy task. From what i read it seems this can only be done by api or by changing the user registry before the user logs on (http://www.windowsitpro.com/Article/ArticleID/47605/47605.html)

Right now my script manually right clicks the taskbar ---> goes to toolbar ---> New toolbar

I would like to get away from this method...anyone have any ideas? anyone know how to do this by api?

Does it need to be a office toolbar? Also, have you tried to run console to set it up before the user logs in? (Start>run>mmc)

Well it wouldn't need to be an office toolbar, ... but thats what i want to used it for...

i am just looking for an equivilent of right clicking on taskbar --> toolbar --> New toolbar

and pointing to a specific folder

as far as the mmc way... i don't really know what you mean

even a rundll32 link to the new toolbar dialog boy would be better than what i am using now

This is what i have right now...it works fine as long as the taskbar is on the bottom of the screen... but i would like to get away from sendkeys and mouseclicks
