originally set up. The school that set it up for him has special software to prevent students from putting pictures on the desktops. They are only allowed to change the color. Thank Noel, Loretta "Noel Paton" wrote in message ... Irrespective of what the setup was, the tab should still be available - if only to activate it, should you be so foolish as to wish to do so!

Have you actually installed Desktop Themes?
The tab will not be there if you haven't. e.g. I chose not to install them, so I don't have such a tab in Display. Install via Control Panel-Add/Remove-Windows Setup-Desktop Themes. ....Alan -- Alan Edwards, MS MVP W95/98 Systems http://dts-l.org/index.html On Fri, 2 Sep 2005 18:46:11 -0400, "Loretta" wrote: In Windows ME after a virus attack (desktop hijacker) The Thems/and Desktop tabs are missing from the Display Properties dialog box.
