Our users have 3 specific programs that they use, outlook, a case managment systems and also photo viewer for viewing scanned documents. I want to install some software that will position these windows on the screen and lock them so the users can't minimise or maximise the windows and so the windows can't overlap eachother.

Thanks
 
2 Things here;

1) I've not come across software that will do this for you.

2) IMO this would be such a bad thing to do for usability. I'm running 1280 x 1024 on a 21" monitor and would find it difficult to run 3 applications like you are discussing - especially Outlook and 2 others.

That aside, it is possible to do this. I once did something similar using Visual Basic.
