I need some help placing Icons on the desktop in my program.  No one seems to
understand how to do it.  Can any one help me with it??

I'm using Lightspeed Pascal and I'm trying to put Clickable Icons on the desktop
of my program. 

This is what we have tried.  
	1) GetPort(globalportvariable)
	executed after InitGraf,
	2) when I'm ready to put the Icons on the desktop I do
	GetPort(oldport)
	SetPort(globalportvariable)
	IconHandle := GetIcon(IconID)
	PlotIcon(IconHandle,destinationrectange)
	SetPort(oldport)

If anyone can respond I'd appreciate it.
I don't have an email account so respond on the notes file.
