assigned shortcut keys for the desktop not working

When I assign a progra a shortcut under the properties of the program - it
won't work. It will allow me to assign it, I can see the ctr+alt+r, but then
I hit ok and try and nothing happens. Help please!

Thanks

Right-click on the program in the start menu>Send To> Desktop(Create Shortcut)
