Windows in Taskbar in Access 2007

[pjtaylor]

Being able to see all the screens currently open in an Access
application in the taskbar, and being able to easily switch between
them was a feature some of my users found helpful. This feature could
be turned on or off in Tools > Options > View > Windows in Taskbar, or
programatically with Application.SetOption "ShowWindowsInTaskbar",
False (or True to turn on).

This feature has been available since Access 2000, but no longer works
under Access 2007. Why?

Does anybody know what the deal is here, ie: has MS decided (in their
wisdom) to take this feature out or am I missing something?

Answers are appreciated.

Thanks,
Phil
