Hi Brenda,

I don't believe that you can do this directly in the Setup Wizard. You can create a post-setup executable to do the job. You'll also need a copy of my lnkfiles.dll (in the Win32 and other APIs download section). That will allow you to retrieve the location of the desk top and create the link file there. It comes complete with a help file in VFP syntax.

hth,
George
