how to put Calculator at the left bottom bar

[Paul]

I have the IE and OE small icon at the left end of the bottom bar just next
to Start.
I use Calculator very often.
I would like to add Calculator icon to station there too.
How to do it?
Thanks.

Go to calculator in accessories and right click.
Place a shortcut on the desktop.
Right click on the bottom bar and unlock it.
Resize the icon area to allow room for the icon.
Drag calculator from desktop to bar.
Delete icon from desktop.
Lock the bar.

Hi Paul,

Right click the desktop, choose new-->shortcut, use browse and go to:

C:\Windows\system32\calc.exe

Finish creating the shortcut. Right click the taskbar, see if "lock the
taskbar" is checked - if so click on it to uncheck it first. Otherwise, drag
the new shortcut onto the Quicklanunch bar. It will create a copy there and
you can then delete the one on the desktop. Relock the taskbar if desired.

create a short cut to it, or from the Start Menu under Accessories (or
wherever it actually is), drag it to the quickstart bar.

I read the "last post", but I still don't know how to add calculator and the icon.

I think the second post is more explicit, try following that instruction.
