 |
|
Hello people,
this may sound crazy but I need to create shortcuts from within my VDS-program. Is there a way to create them IN my program, or is there a way to create them with an external command. Or does someone else know how I can achieve this?

How about this? 
| Code: | | LINK CREATE, <filename>, <link path>, <link name> , <icon path> , <start directory> <arguments> |
| VDS Help File wrote: | The LINK CREATE command is used to create a shortcut to a program or file.
The <filename> is the name of the program or file that the shortcut will be a link to. The <link path> is the directory or folder in which the shortcut is to be created. The Windows desktop can usually be found at the path @WINDIR(desktop). The Start menu is usually found at the path @WINDIR(Start Menu). The <link name> is the description that will appear beneath the shortcut.
The <icon path> is optional. If present it gives the location of the icon that will be used for the shortcut.
The <start directory> is optional. If present i it gives the starting directory that will be used.
The <arguments> parameter is also optional. If present, it specifies arguments on the command line of program <filename>.
If commas are part of the arguments they should be enclosed in quotes.
If successful, a shortcut will be created with the path <link path><link name>.LNK. |

Hi,
Please post your topic as "normal" unless it's something (such as an
announcement) that needs to stay on top of all of the posts in the forum.
Thanks
