Dual Boot Priority - help!

I'm dual booting W2K and XP but spend most time in W2K. However, the MS boot loader by default lists XP first, so I have to sit and wait to arrow down to W2K and hit enter or else I end up in XP. Question is: how can I switch the priority so that W2K is the nominal OS loaded instead of XP? Small thing I know, but anything to save time...I can go pour another cup of coffee if I can just turn on the machine and let it boot into the OS I want instead of having to hover over it. Thanks for any suggestions.
 
Start - settings - control panel - advanced - startup and recovery. Or, you can edit boot.ini in Notepad, but easier to let control panel do it for you.
