Shortcut For Today Screen?
Hi there,

I was wondering if someone could please tell me the shortcut (path, program, etc.) I will need to use so that I can have a Today item on not only my main start menu but also in a subfolder.

I am sure this is a more complex path as I could not find a LNK file anywhere on my X5 so I am sure it has something to do with WM 2003.

I'm hoping someone here is more advanced than myself in this respect.

RGDs & TIA

Hello from Surrey!
The Today PowerToy (part of the PHM PPC PowerToys) is an applet w/o any UI that simply return to the Today screen. It can be assigned to a H/W button to avoid tapping Start/Today; assign it to a button in Start/Settings/Personal/Buttons/Program Buttons.

Hi there,

Actually that is not an option for me as my buttons are already mapped to other programs.

I am sure their must be a way to do this seeing it is listed in the start menu.

Thanks for your suggestion though.

...or create a shortcut of the Today PowerToy applet and paste it to any folder/sub-folder where you wish to access the Today screen. Assigning it to a H/W button isn't the only way! It can also be used in several apps like task switchers if they provide a mean to link to another application and don't provide a today function by themselves. If you're using IcBar, you could just enable the Today button and assign to it the built in today facility & you could easily switch to Today screen wherever you are with just one tap!
