Shortcut for Windows XP Callendar.
When you click start you have 2 columns. When you open
and go to Microsoft Works Calendar Left click the
Calendar and drag it over to the first column at the top.
Close All Programs and now left click and drag the
Calendar to your Desktop.
That's your shortcut.

As for the Reminder for your calendar it's located in
Options in the Edit Tab. I didn't check any further.
