Web Links on the Task Bar

I love the GoldMine Taskbar, because you can put practically anything on there from GoldMine menu actions to document links, applications, and web sites.

What I find annoying is that if I put a web site on the TaskBar when I use the link it replaces the web site I currently have up.  To get around this, when adding a web site link to the TaskBar add an external application instead.  Start with a Right Click | Add New Item to the TaskBar as you always would.

Use C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe for the Application, C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\ as the start directory and then in the command link place your web site’s URL with double quotes around it.

This example will open CNN.com in a new browser window.
