Drag to Desktop - no ICON appears on desktop

When dragging (or copying) a file from a directory directly to the Desktop, the operation is performed, but no ICON appears on the desktop. If the Desktop is viewed in the folders dialog box, the file is there, and can be dragged back into another folder. If the file in question isn't dragged directly to the desktop, but instead to the Desktop in the folder tree, the ICON then appears on the desktop. This looks like a Vista error. Has anyone else seen this? Thanks! Dick
