Somehow, I have opened a folder (in this case My Pictures) and I can't get
it off my Desktop. I can use the two-sided arrow to move it to the left, but I still can see a portion of My Pictures at the left edge of the screen. I don't see My Pictures in the task bar either. Thanks -- Roger |

Go to the Display applet in Control Panel and look on the Desktop tab. Click on Customize Desktop, and then click on the Web tab. If there is a checkmark next to "Lock Desktop Items" uncheck that, Apply/OK out. Malke -- Elephant Boy Computers www.elephantboycomputers.com "Don't Panic!" MS-MVP Windows - Shell/User |
