I've now got it working as a class but not done. Currently, I've cut some code out of your inifiles.prg (class) and combined it with some of the .dll calls. Currently, I've got methods calls to allow you to check the windows desktop, by passing the name of the link file (.lnk). It checks the .lnk if it exists and sets a property for the name of the command file, then deletes the lnk file.
oX = createobject('lnkMaint')
oX = delDesktopLnk('MYFILE.LNK')
above sets:
oX.cCmdFileName = 'C:\PROGRAM FILES\MYDIR\MYFILE.EXE'
You can then choose to delete the command file.
oX.delCmdFile()

You can also send a parm containing the name of the sub directory under the windows 'C:\WINDOWS\START MENU\PROGRAMS\???'
oX.delStartMenuLnk('mydir\myfile.lnk')
Locates (if exists) c:\windows\start menu\mydir\myfile.lnk and attempts to find the command file myfile.lnk is associated with.
Then deletes the myfile.lnk

I'm going to expand the functionality, possibly using your find file routine that looks at the registry, and find next methods. When I am done, I'll send you a copy of it, since alot of it was your code!

Robert
