Something I do with a lot of shortcut icons I don't use all the time. I make a folder for my desktop called "desktop icons" and put them all in there. I also put a shortcut icon of this folder in my task bar. It keeps the clutter down to a few and it is easier than start -programs- etc. Steve * * * reply separator * * * Yes, I call mine 'Pencil Holder'.
