Nologic Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 One can also use AutoIt to create shotcuts.Examples of it being done are in both Notepad2 & Metapad AutoIt scripts in the sticky thread in the App's forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aresgodofwar Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 I did try to google, but it seems that i couldn't match the keywords.... dow...np. sometimes it helps to think about the wording for a minute, then search. for me, web searching was a difficult art to master because i have to change the way i would word things to the way it should be worded, or what not. i don't always think in the same way other people do.

tguy Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 VBScript will create a shortcut for you from the command line. All you have to do is execute the script.Here is an example of how to create a shortcut for Windows Explorer on the Desktop.'Create Windows Explorer Desktop iconSet Shell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")DesktopPath = Shell.SpecialFolders("AllUsersDesktop")Set link = Shell.CreateShortcut(DesktopPath & "\Explorer.lnk")link.Arguments = "/n,/e,c:\"link.Description = "Explorer link"link.HotKey = "CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+E"link.IconLocation = "%SystemRoot%\explorer.exe"link.TargetPath = "%SystemRoot%\explorer.exe"link.WindowStyle = 1link.WorkingDirectory = "%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%"link.Savetguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
