You don't need the API for that, you could use the windows script host components. Especifically the WshShell object. See this brief example on how to create a shortcut: (MSDN) http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wsh/htm/wsMthCreateShortcut.asp

IMO a cleaner, more professional way to create a shortcut for your application is through the use of an installation routine created by the package and deployment wizard or your favorite installer.
