Shortcut needs to run the file. I know how to do that and, you right, double click in a button would do it just fine.
The problem is to display appropriate icon for given file.
Let's say if there is Excel file I want to set an Excel icon for the button.
It's doable. I was just thinking that there is may be function around that I can use to simplify the code. (Same behavior like when you are ceating shortcut for desktop.)
