>>If the code I provided above doesn't give you these options, then it must be something about XP, but I doubt that. I just tested it under VFP 6.0 SP5 on my Win2K box, works as I described. Are you using the FAQ or the Shell.Application object?

>Nevermind, I'm having a brain fart today. I was developing this program at home on XP Pro but at work (where I am now) I have win98. I'll be sure to try that code out on my XP machine tonight. Hmmm... now I have the problem that it might work right on XP but not older OS's like XP :-) Thanks for all your help.

It should work on almost any machine. The one exception that I can think of would be a Win95 box that never had IE 4.01 installed. Under Win95, you had to have that version installed in order to have access to the ActiveDesktop. The Shell.Application is part of that(the ActiveDesktop). This isn't a problem with later versions of Windows that the ActiveDesktop (such as Win98) is a part of.
