Thanks Perry. I will search for it when I get home and let you know. I know
at one time it seemed to be saving my icons where I wanted them, but now it
seems to just be sorta' random as to whether it'll come back the way I want
it to (I definitely love the "Align to Grid" function though - that's one
thing Windows had over KDE for a little while, but now, as usual, KDE leaves
Windows in the dust!).

Thanks again...

Hi,

Not sure it is your problem but (on KDE 3.1.4) I have to click
"Save Session" in the Kmenu because it is not saved automatically.
This behaviour can be altered by setting the option "On Loging/restore
previous session" in the Session Manager of the Control Center.

Hope that helps    Perry
