Hi everyone,

I use a windows 7 machine, but my wife has a problem on her xp machine and I can't remember how to fix it.

I'm really not sure exactly how she did this, but somehow she deleted her My Documents icon from her desktop. All the documents and such are still there, just the icon is gone.

I went into the documents and settings folder and found her "my documents" and created a shortcut which I then moved to the desktop.

The problem is that it should appear above the "My Computer" icon and it's actually located over to the right of that.

I've experimented with items in the "arrange by" under the desktop context menu but can't seem to get it back where it belongs.

I did something similar once myself and was able to fix it, but it's really been a long time since I've worked with xp.

Can anyone suggest just how I can get the icon back where it's supposed to be?

Help will really be appreciated to keep peace in the family.  <smile>

Thanks,

Don
