RE: [RT] OFF TOPIC: Desktop Problem

["Bill Daniel" <bogeybunky@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I 
tried that, but I cannot find the file in DOS.  It has been a while.  
Is there a search command in DOS?  Or do you know where the desktop 
directory is located?  Thanks for the suggestion.

  You can delete anything in DOS even if it is being used

    Try going to the directory Windows\Desktop and 
    deleting the shortcut.

      Problem
      
      
      I have a shortcut icon on my windows desktop that I created when I went 
      to the Andrews Pitchfork Primer webpage. When I right clicked on the web 
      site to create the shortcut it created an incredibly long string of text 
      as the description that appears when you highlight the desktop icon.
      Now I cannot delete it. When I try to delete it I get an error message 
      "Cannot delete file. The filename you specified is invalid or too long. 
      Specify a different filename."
      If I right click on the link I do not get the normal menu. I don't get 
      anything.
      Any suggestions as to how this can be removed will be greatly 
      appreciated.
      Bill
