Re: ACS and windows taskbar quick launch shortcut

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Paul - I tried that - it opens up the entire ACS window - not the batch 
sessions.


Is that what happens for you? I don't want the whole thing - only the 
sessions, as I was able to do with i Access sessions.


I believe this is a Windows limitation - but is probably worth an RFE - 
not sure ACS is available on that process, will look into it.
