Dear all,
I have tried all options to keep all excel workbook visible in taskbar, starts from taskbar option to regedit. But I am not able to find the permanent solution.
I have to first go to File>options>Advance>Display and then uncheck the "show all windows in taskbar" and exit
then once more I have to go to File>options>Advance>Display and then check the option for each and every workbook to keep those visible in taskbar.
Now, I want to have some macro which can do the above work with a click
Windows 10, Office Office Prof. Plus 2010
Help needed please

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
Don't remember how it was in Excel 2010 but now, isn't it only a Windows option ?
Right-click an empty part of the Windows taskbar / select 'Taskbar settings' / select 'Never' from the 'Combine taskbar buttons' dropdown.
This will affect all applications iconized in the Taskbar, not just Excel.

I started with Taskbar >Never Combined option only. Because when I was using win7, it was working nicely. But taskbar option to select Never Combined doesn't work in Win10- in my case. But the above method which I mentioned earlier is working, but it takes time. Which is as under:
by going to File>options>Advance>Display and then first uncheck the option then press OK.
Then once more going to File>options>Advance>Display and then first check the option then press OK.
For each and every workbook this has to be done. Then these workbooks will always visible in taskbar.
I want to have some macro which will do the above mentioned job
