Virtual Desktop

Hi,
I had a question about Virtual Desktop that my best friend named Google doesn't wan't to answer for me. I realize that there are tons of applications out there that can make multiple desktops with different wallpapers on each and you can run different applications on different desktops. However...my question was, I want to have lets say 2 virtual desktops...im just using that as an example, it can be more, I really don't care. But my question was, is there anyway to make it so that each different desktop has different application shortcuts. For example, lets say I have one desktop with shortcuts only for games, another desktop with shortcuts only for work applications...like microsoft office or adobe photoshop and another desktop with shortcuts to other misc applications. Is there anyway to do that, because none of the applications I've tried have features allowing to do that.

I sort of makes sense why applications can't do it, because deleting a shortcut would ultimately delete it from your user desktop folder but I don't know, anyway around this?...I know you can simply create another account for this, but I want to do all that on a single account if possible, thanks for any help.
