Fw: MI 6.0 A plea to lock down the tool bars

[Eric Frost / HR and Associates, Inc.]

I think I am not clear on the complaint or how save as default 
is the solution.

when you're working with the buttons a lot occasionally
you hit in the 'edge' area instead of right on the buttonpad
and swish it swaps positions with something else or floats
away...

I am starting to get the hang of the mouse now with you know
like 15 years practice but I still manage to do this at least
once a month.

is there a GlueAll API? maybe a function in WinBatch
