Ken, you can do this with the Windows Scripting Host.

(lifted from the MSDN CreateShortcut Method entry)
osh = CreateObject('WScript.Shell')
oShellLink = osh.CreateShortcut("Current Script.lnk")
oShellLink.TargetPath = WScript.ScriptFullName
oShellLink.Save

oUrlLink = WshShell.CreateShortcut("Microsoft Web Site.URL")
oUrlLink.TargetPath = "http://www.microsoft.com"
oUrlLink.Save
Cheers,

Andrew

If we were to introduce Visual FoxBase+, would we be able to work from the dotNet Prompt?
