SHORTCUTS

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.perform_maintain (More info?)

Hi
I am having a problem with not being able to send a page I want to use as a
shortcut to the desktop.
Does anyone know what I can do to repair this feature??
Since I have had this problem I have been sending the page to "Favorites",
but with some I use a lot, I would like to have a shortcut on the desktop.

Thanks for any assistance or suggestions.

On a blank area of the screen right-click, new then shortcut.

You should be able to grab the internet explorer icon from the address bar.

Thayn ...
Thanks for the response.
I tried it and it still doesn't work.
This happens with any page I right-click on to save as shortcut on desktop,
or from the list with choice of "send as shortcut to desktop"
Any suggestions??
Thanks
