Subject header explains it all. Also, am I able to create a 'start' button shortcut on the object dock?

Use Notepad to create a file called 'Show Desktop.scf' that contains the following

[Shell]
Command=2
IconFile=explorer.exe,3
[Taskbar]
Command=ToggleDesktop

Drag it onto the ObjectDock and apply whatever icon you want to it.

There's a Show Desktop docklet in the OD library. To link to the Start Menu, I always use a little app called PresStart. You can find it here....

Or you can use Gary's trick for the show Desktop!
