We read a number of articles on the internet about changing the
text on the Start button in XP. On more than one occasion I’ve seen
references to a five (5) letter limitation when the button is
renamed. I always wondered if this was true or just an assumption
someone made because the default ‘start’ just happened to fit the
button size. So, I decided to run a test and see if there really was
a five character limit.
As you can see from the screen capture above it would seem that the
five character limit isn’t etched in stone. The button expanded to
accept the text I entered with no problem....
