Creating *.lnk shortcut files programmatically

Post by montanan » Sun Dec 20, 2009 6:15 pm

Hello.

I'm writing a script to create shortcuts to photos based on topics and am running Macro Scheduler on Vista.

Have any fellow scripters found a good way to create Windows Shortcuts (*.lnk) files programmatically?

I'd appreciate the help!
