Anyone know if you can run a shortcut within VFP? For whatever reason I have a user that would like to have the ability to execute a known shortcut (.lnk) file instead of executing whatever is in the Target field of the shortcut..

The part that stumps me is that the shortcut can be run from DOS but it cant be run from the RUN command within VFP. I've took a look at WshShell and nothing appears to work there either. The WshShell.Run allows you to tap into the programs that are responsible for opening other files but it still doesnt allow you to run the .lnk file.

Any ideas?
