Access denied (changing a Startup List item)

Thank you for the extended and thorough discussion, Vang and Tim.
You've given me plenty to work with.

Just one point about having Administrator Account to have in case of
failure. I go to great lengths to always have a recent clone of my full
hard drive partition, on another drive. If and when I require it, I
simply reboot to the slave drive, and update a few appropriate
directories as needed.
