Gadget documentation

Where are the directions for using the gadgets. For example I can't get the
weather gadget to display Cleveland weather. How do I set which stocks are
in the stock ticker? etc etc

Move your mouse over the gadget. Click on the small wrench that appears
below the little X.

Right-click on the Gadget icon in the taskbar and select Help.

That gives the ability to set options but no real help if you don't
understand what the option means. I was looking for documentation on each
of the specific gadgets.

This doesnt give help on specific gadgets, just general info on moving them
around and selecting which ones you want displayed.

Just play with the options and see what the different settings do,
just take it slow and make one change, see what it does, put it
back, and do that until you are comfortable enough with making
changes or getting settings setup the way you want them.

The basic gadgets that come with Vista are pretty simplistic, don't
be to concerned about messing them.

Hope this helps
