Shortcuts

[rickdv]

I have recently installed Office 2007 on XP sp2. For some reason I cannot
right click for getting shortcuts on the desktop after going to all programs
- nothing happens. I can't drag a shortcut from the programs in the list
after clicking start. Is there something I have to reset? I have tried to
reinstall but no good.

I'm not sure I understand exactly what the problem is but see if the following
helps.

Right click on your Start button and select Properties from the menu.
Note: You can also right click on your Taskbar and select Properties from the
menu.
In Taskbar and Start Menu Properties, click on the Start Menu tab.
Hit the Customize button.

If you're using the XP style menu, click on the Advanced tab.
In the Start menu items box, make sure "Enable dragging and dropping" is
checked.
Click OK twice.

If you're using the Classic menu, look in the "Advanced Start Menu options" box
for "Enable dragging and dropping".
Make sure it's checked.
Click OK twice.

Good luck
