Just to mention an alternative if you are not aware of it...
Start | Programs |...
and Right click the program you like (Excel for example)
From the menu, select "Send To"
and select "Desktop (Create Shortcut)"

Or...Work the other way around.
From a blank area of your desktop, Right Click, and from the menu, select
"New" and select "Shortcut"
Select Excel.

Just an alternative for the dragging impaired. :) HTH
