Have you ever seen this happen:

You create a shortcut on a workstation, which launches an exe somewhere on the network.

Then the day comes when you need to move an enhancement live. So you move the exe to an archive folder and replace it with a new exe.

Only trouble is, the target in the shortcut now points to the exe in the archive folder--not the new exe.

This doesn't happen all the time. But I know I've seen it happen before. In fact, it recently happened to one of our client's IS staffers--and he swears that we modified the shortcut's target manually.

Can anyone shed some insight into how to replicate this behavior?

TIA
David Martin
