If I wanted to make icons on my desktop (windows 98) that would allow me to click and start BVE in one route, what is the command I would use. I know that the first part is c:\progra~1\bve\bve , what is the rest?

"C:\Program Files\BVE\BVE.EXE" Railway\Route\{ROUTE FOLDER}\{ROUTE FILENAME}Include the quotation marks in your shortcut, but don't include the curly brackets! I've tried different combinations to get Track Viewer to load a route, but unfortunately, I haven't had any luck. Hope this helps!Robert

while we're on the subject, do you know an easy way to link into my objects folder in 98? I had no trouble with XP, but 98 actually wants to open a file, whereas I only want to go into my folder. any ideas?

HAPPY NOW? It's not moving anymore.
It's still the same train but in another livery, that's all.
