change location of start menu items

hello!

in winxp, I want to put the 'All Programs' of the xp-style 'start menu' at the right column, instead of the left column which is by default, how can I do it ?

thanks!

unlock the taskbar if it is locked, then just click and drag the taskbar to where ever you want it to go.

  I am curious to know why you wish to have it on the other side ?    

I'm not sure that can be done.......

well, let me satisfy your curiocity, even though there shouldnt be questions like 'why should you do this or that', as far as we are concetrating to whether something can happen

the location of the 'All Programs' makes me activating it accidentally by hovering cursor over it (if you click on 'start' button to open the 'start menu' in order to go to the 'recent documents' or the 'recent programs')
I have make it open immediatelly (using tweakui) as it should be, but this makes it activate by mistake
and dont tell me to delay its activation, its not the solution to have to wait whenever I want to open the 'All Programs' menu
in xp style 'start men' there are 2 columns, I want the 'All Programs' in the right column instead of the left which is the default

I wouldnt prefer a 3rd-party app to customize taskbar and such, a windows registry hack would be prefered

umm, maybe we can make the 'All Programs' menu open only with click on it, instead of hovering on it ?? I want it to work only for this menu

thanks

Unfortunately this IS important as sometimes there are better ways to accomplish a solution than the way someone thinks it should be. Sometimes it cannot be done at all. The goal can necessitate the means. Don't be defensive.

I don't have a solution for you, and frankly still don't understand the problem. When I click on Start I can either hover OR click on programs to get it to open with a standard Windows installation. Perhaps you could elaborate some more.

ok, you can either click or hover in order to open the 'All Programs' menu

but I want this menu appear at the right column of the 'start menu'

if this cannot happen, then just make it open ONLY with click, not by hovering over it

thanks

anyone please?

Try this if you like:  Right-click start button>properties>start menu>cusstomize>advanced...  now clear the "open submenus..." box.  Now the all programs menu will only come up if you click it.  Hope that'll be an adequate fix for you.  Good luck!
