Power grep a word and display its column

Hi,

I need idea about this, say I have this line:

05 21 * * 0,6 /user/clean.desktop.sh > /tmp/desktop_rpt 2>&1

I would need to grep the word desktop and display the /user/clean.desktop.sh and not the whole line. And if I have some more lines say,

05 21 * * 0,6 /user/clean.desktop.sh > /tmp/desktop_rpt 2>&1
05 21 * * 0,6 /user/clean.laptop.sh || /user/view.desktop.sh > /tmp/view_rpt 2>&1
05 21 * * 0,6 /user/a.sh || /user/desktop.sh > /tmp/view_rpt 2>&1

It will display:
/user/clean.desktop.sh
/user/view.desktop.sh
/user/desktop.sh

Field separator is the white space.

Any idea how?
