Well.. I'm glad that it worked eventually for you, but just to clarify; the
Desktop folder IS under C:\ (or whatever drive Windows is installed on),
anything that makes it appear otherwise is just a shortcut. ALL default
user folders are contained in the "\Documents & Settings\UserName"
heirarchy, unless of course you installation strays a LONG way from the
standard, which is very unlikely...

If you open Windows Explorer and browse to C:\Documents & Settings, and then
look in the folder under there, you'll see what I mean. The My Documents
folders, Desktop folders, and most others, will actually be located in
these, and the higher level ones you see in the folder tree in Explorer are
shortcuts...

=====================
Now I understand. You explained it in such a way as to be understandable
to almost anyone - including *this* Dummy. :-)
I do so appreciate your time and effort with this.
