>>To click on an icon? Where, on my desktop? I'd have to close a bunch of windows first, and I need those windows open, that's where I work, that's why I have the computer, to get things done on it. It's like having to place a bookmark in each book you have open on your table, and close them all and move them off the table, if you wanted to open one more. And then I'd have to open each window (book) again just to be able to continue. I have no icons at all.

>Well everyone has their own way, which is fine. iro the last point above - I use the show desktop -> click my icon - desktop come back. Or use the quick launch bar. And I have arranged my Start menu -> Program Folders hierarchy as I need it. Each to his own.

My way emerged from my bad experience with menus, where things were fine as long as it was the same menu all the time and I visited all of its branches regularly, so I knew where things were. VFP's own _msysmenu is on the border - for some things it took me years to memorize the locations where to look.

Menus which are larger than that, or which get rearranged in each new version, are my private nightmare. Which is the main reason I prefer a good MRU/MFU list as the interface. Now if there weren't misnomers all over the place, life would be quite easy.
