Where is Solitaire? 1

[CactysJack]

I thought MS included a few games in Accessories/Games but I guess I am mistaken. Not there on my XP installion. Looked on the install disc but didn't find it.

This must be a dumb question but an hour of looking around was fruitless.

TIA,

John

Have you looked for the them in All Programs/Games ? If there are no games, go to Add/Remove Programs and install games. (Windows Components-> Accessories and Utilities)

Did that help?

Bingo!

Starudin - I have the program but what I need now is to link to it and I cannot find where it is located.

TIA

Start - Programs - Accessories - Entertainment The solution is out there.

Actually mine is found at START/Games/Solitaire but what I really want is the file address so I can make a link to it from another program.

I finally located it in WINDOWS/System32/Sol.exe. That should do it.

Thanks to both for the leads.

Your games are probably in C:\Windows\System32 directory (Solitaire-sol.exe, Spider Solitaire-spider.exe, pinball.exe, etc.). Create shortcuts and place them wherever you want them... (Ofcourse, you can look for them in your Start menu, they should be there somewhere, maybe even in Entertainment, as marcs41 suggested)

Regards!

Again thanks. And excuse my /\ problem. Got my link working (for an MS Access Application - hidden egg)
