From MVP Rick Rogers - Copy/paste the below into notepad, then click file/"save as" and call it "show desktop.scf" and drop it on the desktop. You can drag it from there to the quicklaunch bar. [Shell] Command=2 IconFile=EXPLORER.EXE,3 [Taskbar] Command=ToggleDesktop Malke -- Elephant Boy Computers www.elephantboycomputers.com "Don't Panic!" MS-MVP Windows - Shell/User
