Task Pane Manager

The Task Pane Manager displays links to useful information and dialog boxes for performing essential tasks. Individual panes can contain static or dynamic information, gather content from the Internet, expose wizards to accomplish routine tasks, display Help, and present samples. Users can create customized panes that can be shared with other users.
