In Windows XP when you right click the task bar and add a shortcuts toolbar, you are free to have the new toolbar on any edge of the screen away from the taskbar. In Windows 7, I seem to have that shortcut bar stuck on the taskbar. How can I move the shortcut bar to the top of the screen and keep the taskbar at the bottom of the screen, please?

Thanks difarn. I think RocketDock has all I need - the other seems a bit over the top for me (but no doubt others will like them).

rdave13 -Doubling the task bar works well. I must admit I find it more useful to enable the desktop toolbar - all icons are then neatly put into a pop up menu. I have then created other toolbars for apps, media, etc. Different things work for different people.

difarn, yes I agree, and I always have the taskbar hidden. Each to their own.
