Kim, are you trying to put it directly into the start menu as an item like 
programs and run and things like that, or are you wanting to put it in the 
programs section?  Also, what version of windows is it?  If it's XP, what 
view is the start menu in?


Ruthie &

  It could always be worse; It might be my problem!
