I am running Win XP on a Dell 8250.

When my Dell was delivered it had MS Office
Professional installed.The window displayed
when the green "all programs" button is clicked
contained the icons for Word, Powerpoint,Access
and Excel.
I dragged the Word and PP icons to the desktop
intending to create shortcuts. Instead I carelessly
moved the icon. Later, trying to fix things, I
somehow managed to delete the Word and PP
icons from the desktop.
I finally got shortcuts to the desktop, but
I would like to know how to restore the Word
and PP icons to the all programs window as they
originally were. I have already done the pin to
start outine but that is not exactly the same.

Try going to C:\Documents and Settings and going in there to the user you
want to put it back on.

Then go C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Start Menu
(Owner being the user you're working with)
Then move the shortcut from there to:
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Start Menu\Programs

It should show on the All Programs then.
