1220532 2011-08-02 05:57:00 How can i get the windows 7 taskbar to group the open programs at teh end of the shortcuts on my taskbar/startbar? See pic icow (15313)
1220533 2011-08-02 06:22:00 If the programs are dis-similar for example, Firefox, Office, Opera, paint - I dont think you can.

If you have for example several pages open in FF, IE or Paint they will automatically group in the desired program.

The attachment shows several pages open in IE, all grouped.

Edited: have a look at This here (www.sevenforums.com) - may or may not be of help.

Right-click on the taskbar and go to Properties and have a go.
The default setting is 'Always combine, hide labels.'

It may also have options for doing what you want, but I am not sure.

It is still beta but works quite well.
