Ok, I know that this is going to sound like the dummest thing you have ever
heard but I want your promise to keep those thoughts to yourself before you
decide to answer this post.
I was "rearranging" the items in Start-up because I had so many programs
that I couldn't see the newest ones that I'd installed. I created several
folders which I placed in the "Programs" folder (C > Documents and Settings
folders inside of it. I created another one for all of my picture programs,
another for Yahoo, etc, etc. I combined Microsoft software into the
Microsoft Office Tools folder. However, and this is THE big however, I
somehow lost Microsoft Word and Access. The "Microsoft Office Shortcut"
toolbar will come up and I can choose Word, Excel, Access, etc, but a Search
for these programs comes up empty. I've always had shortcuts of these
programs on my desktop for extremely easy access, but even though the
programs are in my pc, I can't "find" them except by opening the Microsoft
Office Tools folder, which is ok, but I want to find the programs and I can't
find them. I created a shortcut icon from each of the icons in the Office
Shortcut Bar and placed them on my desktop, which resolved half of my dilema.
But it's driving me crazy that I can't find them in a search.
Oh where, oh where can my programs be? Or where, or where can they be?
*sniffle*
Now, remember . . . you promised not a word about this teensy-weensy, uh,
blunder. Okay, it was a blunder, I'll admit it, but I'm going to hold you to
your word . . . unintentional pun, lol.
