Thank you, but when I try what you suggest I still get the subdirectory in the second action.

Problem:
Want results not to include files in subdirectories of the desktop

Try something along the lines of

Get Specified Finder Items
Drag in the Desktop folder
Get Folder Contents
And don't check the "Repeat for each subfolder found" checkbox

That'll produce a list of everything on the desktop, but not any of the subdirectories. Just the desktop items.
