I have a partial work-around. I have about 20 shortcuts in my Quick launch folder. Now I use some of these links very frequently and others less so. So I created a new folder within the Quick launch directory and put the less-frequently used links there. I then numbered the remaining dozen or so shortcuts. I didn't number the items I wanted to be first displayed along the taskbar and the remaining numbered links remain in their numerical order shortcut on the taskbar. I noticed that the un-numbered links still didn't remember their order but as it is only 4 shortcuts I can live with that. Cheers Richard

Rename the Shortcuts, placing a number in front of them.
