Setup project and adding a start menu shortcut

M

MarkusJ_NZ

Hi, can someone please provide me with some information on how I can
create a shortcut from the users start menu/ desktop to my installed
application when I am using the VS2005 setup wizard.

I have tried rightclicking on the relevant folders in the setup wizard
and creating a new shortcut but the best I can do is open up the
folder where the application is located.

I want to actually run the application. I have had a look on google
but most of the info is for VS2003.

Thanks for any help, this is doing my head in!!!

Regards
Markus

In your Application folder, right-click on the exe and selecte 'Create
shortcut..'

This will create a thing named something like 'Shortcut to My.exe'

Drag this to the start menu folder. Then rename it.

Repeat for Desktop.
