Sergey,
thanks for the tip. Even though George's DLL (Message #721424) is almost 6 years old it works perfectly with Windows XP.


>>I need to be able to create special shortcuts on the desktop from within my VFP 8 program (if possible). These will be used to start the program with special parameters. Can this be done? I really would like to avoid forcing the user to run 5 or 6 different copies of Install Shield or having to manually create a shortcut.
>>TIA
