I installed Wordperfect Office 11 (2003) but the installation CD did not place startup icons on the desktop for Quattro Pro 11 and for Wordperfect 11. After locating the files using Windows Explorer, I dragged copies of the icons to the desktop. Although the icons in Windows Explorer opened the programs with no problems, the copies on the desktop do nothing. Can you help?
