Hi

I hava a small windows forms program. In my setup project
I have put the primary output of the windows forms program
and a shorcut to the primary output in the User's Send To
folder. The problem is that the shortcuts that the setup
up program creates when runed do not point to the .exe
file but to the folder which contain the .exe file Thus,
right clicking a document doesnot pop up with Send To for
my program. BUT if I browse to the .exe file and manually
create a short cut to it for the Send To folder, THAT
shorcut works, and by the way THAT shorcut points to
the .exe file...

Any hints on how I get the Setup program to create a "Send
To Folder" friendly shorcut??

Best regards, Ágúst V.
