This is sort of off topic, but here we go.

I noticed that Office 2003 creates shortcuts that I cannot edit (by right-clicking-->properties, editing the target field). How can I edit this?

Also how do one create shortcuts like this in VB or VBA code (if it is possible)?

Thanks,

Thanks, Robdog888.

But how do you create shortcuts to programs that is un-editable (by right clicking and selecting properties)?

Examples are the MS Office 2003 shortcuts on the start menu.

Those use a different technique that I am not familiar with. I havent seen anything on them yet but then again, I wasnt really looking either. Perhaps a search on MS would be a good starting place.
