Hello, Anne  and Farhad --

It shows up as "Appearance Settings" -- and works very nicely!  THANK 
YOU!!!

Now I have one question.  There are several items put on the desktop 
that I don't really need on the Desktop; can I "Delete" them, as 
represented by icons on the Desktop withOUT deleting the files 
themselves?  If the answer is "No," is there another way to produce a 
similar result?

I REALLY APPRECIATE all the outstanding instruction I am receiving on 
this matter -- my most sincere THANKS to one and ALL!!!!!
