 |
|
Ok, does anyone know how to get an icon from user32.dll to show up
for a short cut created using LINK CREATE?
I'm trying to make a shortcut to a drive and to show the appropriate
icon for that drive. Here is what I have, but it doesn't work:
| Code: |
%%DkTop = @WINDIR(Desktop)
%%DriveName = @volinfo(%%DriveLetter,N)
LINK CREATE,@windir()"\"explorer.exe,%%DkTop,%%DriveName,@windir(s)"\shell32.dll,7",%%DriveLetter,%%DriveLetter |
Shortcut is being created, but the icon in shell32.dll is not being displayed.
Any idea's?
Thanks in advance,
-Garrett

Hi Garrett,
I think you need to change this from::
| Code: |
@windir(s)"\shell32.dll,7"
|
to::
| Code: |
@windir(s)"\shell32.dll|7"
|
