Make your shortcut, right click it, select properties and in the "Run"
window select "minimized".

I've already tried that. In my case it always defaults to maximised.

Thanks, I've already tried that.
In my case it always defaults to normal.
How can I convince Windows XP that I really want it to start minimized?
Thanks again

This is a Windows 98 group.

Anyway, in Windows 98 it appears that the Printers shortcut takes on
the size and position of the last saved Explorer window.

BTW, I tried minimising Explorer and then closing it from the taskbar,
but that still resulted in a "normal" window for the Printers
shortcut.

Worked as it should for me.

Thanks, Franc.
Sorry I misspoke.
In Windows XP, Printers will open minimized for me.
I'd like it to do the same in Windows 98, but it keeps coming up normal.
Sounds like I'll have to live with it that way.
