and therein lies the problem - I am a luddite!
I've received a link in an email which opens up a file with a number of spreadsheets in. What I'd like to be able to do, if possible, is to have a shortcut with an icon on my desktop which will take me straight to the file and the spreadsheets.
Hope this makes sense!

EITHER:
Left click on the link to open it in your browser
OR
Right-click on the link and select 'Copy' (or 'Copy Link' or whatever else appears within your email system).
AND THEN
Open your web browser, right-click in its address bar and select 'Paste'. Click 'Go' (or hit 'Enter').
THEN . . .
You're now viewing the relevant web page. If you want a shortcut to it on your desktop, reduce the size of your browser window (by clicking on the overlapping squares in its top right-hand corner). Then 'click-&-drag' the small icon which appears immediately to the left of where it says "www." in your address bar, pulling it onto your desktop.

Aaagh!

I had assumed that it was a link to a web page. If it's actually to an attachment, open your spreadsheet program and view those spreadsheets by clicking on the link.
Then, in your spreadsheet program go to File > Save.
Then EITHER . . .
Save the spreadsheets directly onto your desktop (in which case no further action is needed)
OR
Save them in a location of your choice (such as 'My Documents')
IF you chose the latter route . . .
Go to 'My Documents' (or wherever you've saved the spreadsheet file to). Right-click on it and select Send To > Desktop.
