Roger, should have known, there's a better way to put a shortcut to an IE page on your desktop. Open the page, press the right context key, and cursor down to create shortcut. You'll be prompted as to whether you want the shortcut on your desktop, which obviously you do. Job done.

But nothing I do seems to work. Is it in fact possible to have an icon to a website? If so how is it done please. Many thanks Roger Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once. ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
