Hi there William!...

I will make a note of it and check it out later, when I have some time...

One response above gave a reference to a specific download which,
although free and enticing, I have so far found oompossible to implement.

This is quite a common question - and the answer is NO!

Windows (all versions but especially XP) has a habit of re-positioning
icons (i.e. forgetting your custom arrangement) at undetermined
intervals.

The only way we have agreed upon to make any semi-permanent arrangement
is
to re-name each desktop shortcut so that it either starts with a number
or
number-letter combination so that when you select...

"right-click" Arrange Icons By Name

...on your desktop, the icons will be arranged in the order you want
them
to be in.

Sorry if this isn't what you wanted to hear, but it's my best
suggestion.

(Although, a google search may turn up some sort of third-party app)

Maybe this is trivia, but maybe I'm not alone in caring.
In going to LCD monitor, and changing resolution, I find that XP
rearranges my 25-odd icons and I have to put them all back.
Is there a way of saving a desktop as my Default and resetting things
to
that Default when they go awry?
