As per attachment, this will put you on the right track.

You don't need the Windows Scripting Host or the System File Object.
And it doesn't mess with the registry.

Why add the dependencies or risk being flagged a Virus risk?

The download contains the Shortcuts and Special Folders module and it has a form for testing some of the module procedures.

The GetSpecialFolderPath function uses an Enum to make it easy to use.

I believe this will work on Win98 and up.

This module should be able to make shortcuts anywhere and has subs specifically for making them on the Desktop, in Programs Menu, and in Startup Menu
