Place the target Excel sheet in your my documents, right click and create a
ICON then right click and send it to the desk top, right click at the desk
top and on the Properties tab (Change Icon) and you get a selection of Icons
-- This is the method I use and I am sure their are others.

Or just copy the file, right click the desktop, and choose Paste Shortcut.
