How do I remove and place the recycle bin icon from and
to the desktop? Thanks for your help.

You can't. It's the only icon that will stay on your desktop...

Of corse you can remove it. but the probleme is that is
a "registy hack".

you have to modify the:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-
00AA002F954E}\ShellFolder

and the value Attributes

to do that.
DON'T TOUCH IT IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THE REGISTRY IS....
can destroy your system (can't said i didn't warm you :D)

write somthing like : 70 01 00 20
look the net for further infos (www.google.com)

This is a warrior solution !!! It's easier to modify the CLSID
associated with "recycle bin" in
"HKLM\software\microsoft\windows\current version\explorer\desktop\namespace"
With this way, you are not deleting the whole bin configuration, as you
do... You are only deleting the bin on the desktop
Tip : if you want to put the bin into "mycomputer" you'll have to copy
the key in "HKLM\software\microsoft\windows\current
version\explorer\mycomputer\namespace"
