>>SHORTCUT.EXE is not a part of FoxPro - I simply gave some sample code that built a command line for it in Foxpro. You could easily use it in a batch file to modify a shortcut's target directory at the same time the files were copied/moved by the batch file, and you can always modify the shortcut by hand (right click the shortcut, pick Properties, and change the Start In directory under the Shortcut tab.) There's also an API interface to modify/create shortcuts (it's an OLE interface that is most easily accessed via C++) directly. From what you've said, I'd look at building batch files to perform the move/copy, passing the new directory as a command line parameter and using SHORTCUT.EXE to reconstruct/modify the shortcut based on command line parameters within the batch file.

You can use the MS 'Power toys' for this purpose.
One of them add a 'Target' option in the right-click menu.
If you select it, it show you the right-click menu of the
target of the shortcut with the 'copy' option.
