Sorry Brian, you can't judge what I meant.

Oh dear: this is getting rather daft! Surely anyone can judge anyone? But it happens that I haven't judged you - only commented on the ideas you put forward. But - perversely - you are judging me - by saying I "can't" do whatever!

Or do you mean that I shouldn't guess what you meant from what you wrote? I didn't do that either: I just commented on what you wrote first (copy and paste the file) and then on what you subsequently explained you meant (create a shortcut to the file).

I don't see why you think we are in dispute. Your recommendation (now made clear) is to create a desktop shortcut. I'm happy with that and have made that clear. Where is the problem?

And this forum is not to defend ourself but to support users.

I reserve the right to defend myself and will fight for your right to do so, too. And it's odd that you should make that claim in a message whose purpose was surely (quite rightly) to defend yourself!

But your point about supporting users is spot on. And that is precisely why I replied to your original message (and indeed why I chose to do so publicly). It was important that no-one should think that copying and pasting the file itself, as stated in your original message ("copy the file ... and paste") was a good idea. As soon as you indicated that you meant creating a shortcut, I immediately agreed, suggesting that this was "good advice". If that's a judgement, it's a positive and complimentary one. Have a gold star!

Surely we are now reading from the same hymn sheet?
