You would need to insert that widget the same way as you added the tray
widget itself,

This is a laptop.  It has XP, W2K, eCS12RM and now eCS20RC3.  I added the widget to eCS12RM when that came out, but have lost any notes I had on that.

This is eCenter that came with eCS20RC3.  It is a fresh install and rather unmolested at this point.  I did nothing to the eCenter.  What I take to be one tray is already there.  It has three shadows.  To the right of that is an area that has links to what is running.  To the right of that is the time and to the right of that is "E 78", whatever that is.

If I RMB on either side of those last two items I get a box that includes "Create new widget".  The arrow by that opens a list that includes XWLAN.The first time I clicked, the widget was not created, and the system sorta froze - I had to do a power off.  Next boot I did the same thing, the widget was created, and the startup sound started playing in a continous loop.  Reboot; no change.  Delete widget, sound quit.

That BTW is XCenter handling, so it should be included in the XCenter
documentation.

I'll get XCenter and put it on a W4 machine.

I might as well bring up the situation I have with this laptop under eCS12RM.  The NICs are Intell 2200 and Realtek 8139.  In XP and W2K I installed a driver for each.  If the cable is plugged in to the router it uses that.  If the cable was not plugged in uses the wireless.  In eCS I was never able to get it to connect either wired or wireless if both drivers were loaded.  The only way I have been able to connect is set it up wired and save config.sys, protocol.ini and ibmlan.ini, and then do the same for wireless.  I have cmd files to swap those files to change from wired to wireless and back.  Any guess as to whether I am stuck with that scheme?

When I installed eCS20RC3 both wired and wireless were properly found and I accepted them.  I have not done anything to alter that.

Ray
