You're welcome, BudVOkay, success at last! I think I've got it and by way of wrapping up this
thread I'd like to
present the following comments:
Once I finally listened to Noel and showed hidden folders things opened up
significantly. It bothers me a little that desktops were not hidden under
XP; why are they hidden under Vista?
Functionally, it seems that Public desktop is identical to All Users
desktop.
Semantically, I think it's cute that they borrowed the Public folder to
represent the All Users folder. Frankly, I think it's cheating a little but
that's all they had that came close to the required function.
Conceptually, I have a small problem with what they did because my
introduction to Public said that it was to be used for sharing folders
across a network, much like Shared Folders in XP, and I can't visualize
sharing a desktop across a network.
Anyway, all's well that ends well, and I thank you all for your patience and
expertise.
Good Luck
