======================================================================
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - The Microsoft Network versions 2.0, 2.5
---------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When you attempt to connect to a Web page using a shortcut icon on your
desktop, the Web page may not be opened or you may receive the following
error message:

   Microsoft VBScript runtime error [Line: 29]

   Object doesn't support this property or method.

CAUSE
=====

This behavior can occur if the shortcut icon on your desktop was not
properly created.

RESOLUTION
==========

To resolve this issue, follow these steps:

1. Connect to MSN, The Microsoft Network, or start Microsoft Internet
   Explorer.

2. Navigate to the Web page to which you want to create a shortcut.

3. Right-click on the Web page, and then click Create Shortcut.

4. When you are prompted that a shortcut to the current page will be
   placed on your desktop, click OK.

MORE INFORMATION
================

This behavior occurs when you create a shortcut icon by saving a Web page
as an .htm file instead of using this method. The shortcut icon you create
in this way links only to a local copy of the source code of the Web page
and does not link to the Web page over the Internet.
