A Adrian Mascarenhas Mar 3, 2004 #2 hi please is it possible to make a desktop shortcut file to my application at run time ? Click to expand... You could do either of the following: 1) From your application you could call a script. On msdn, there are samples of scripts that are used for creating shortcuts. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/script56/ht ml/wsconcreatingshortcut.asp 2) use the Stkit432.dll that comes with VB. See link on msdn Kb article for more info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=http://support.microsoft.com: 80/support/kb/articles/Q155/3/03.asp&NoWebContent=1 Hope this helps you out. -- Adrian Mascarenhas, Developer Division This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
