Well, my hopes were dashed.  Thought i'd be able to use
CODEKEYS autorun macro to mark *.acc's to *.acx's and 
vice versa  when installing partitions with SOFTLINK.  

What i dicovered (and should have realized) is that while
you CAN use CODEKEYS to open your C:\ and change acc's to acx's
etc.. you CAN NOT have change the directory (ie: added or deleted
files) nor can you have changed the window size and shape..
since CODEKEYS works on x and y coordinates.. if happen to add
or delete a file ..or if you change the window shape/size or
placement on the desktop, CODEKEYS will pick a different file-
whatever happens to be at those coordinates and change it!..

SO... i can't use it as a substitute for Superboot.  Superboot
doesn't work for me becasue it fails to run when booting 
partitions other than the first.  

Anybody have any suggestions on how I can paste together a
program that will allow me to configure distinct desktops 
under SOFTLINK and have these desktops loaded from bootup?


Thanks
