>I wonder if there is any way to create shortcuts and folders within VFP3? The problem I have is my program usually installs on a network server and then I need to install the workstation? Can I create a shortcut in the Workstation when he starts VFP for the first time?

The DDE interface with PROGMAN still works under 95, however, the proper way to do this is through IShellLink. Unfortunately, it's a rather complex interface. The current issue of FoxPro Advisor had an article on this, and, if you got the CD, it had a DLL that did the real work.
