I sent this earlier but I'm afraid it didn't get through because I used 
the wrong sending address so I am resending it.  Sorry.

I have been solving most of my problems with Linux :-) but have come up 
with one that causes me a lot of distress :-(  Being a control freak I 
like to organize my menu, KMenu since I use KDE, so that I can find 
things easily.  That always presents a problem.  Usually when I do this 
many of my icons just disappear never to be seen again. I have found the 
place where the changes to Kmenu are stored.  It is at 
/home/robert/.config/menus/applications.menu and there are a lot of 
applications.menu.undo-## there also.  I have tried altering this also 
to no avail.  So far I have tried to sort them out about 4 or 5 times 
and each time I end up reinstalling to get everything back.  I'm a slow 
learner.  Now, if no one knows a good way to do this, I plan to create a 
new menu heading and place the icons I normally use there by copy and 
past.  Hopefully this won't create another kind of problem.

If anyone sorts Kmenu without problems I would sure like to hear how 
it's done.
Thanks for the help.
