  Eleanor, do you have My Documents on your Start Menu? If so, select it, press 
the Applications key and in the list of options will be a Show On Desktop.

  Hope this helps.

    I lost this icon on my desktop and want to restore it.  It is something 
that happened to me in past years and I was given information about how to 
restore it.  I will post the information given below but where it says to go to 
Advanced tab, I do not have an Advanced tab and thus cannot complete the 
instructions.  I am using Windows XP Pro and here is what I was told in the 
past.  Any suggestions greatfully received thank you.

    1) Open windows explorer via start/programs/accessories/windows explorer
    2) choose folder option via tools
    3) click view tab
    4) in the advanced setting look for 'show my document on the desktop i.e 
    have it ticked and click OK
