Code:'In Visual Basic 5.0, change Stkit432.dll in the following
'statement to Vb5stkit.dll. Stkit432.dll is for Visual Basic 4.0
'For VB6, change it to VB6STKIT.DLL
Private Declare Function fCreateShellLink Lib "STKIT432.DLL" (ByVal
lpstrFolderName As String, ByVal lpstrLinkName As String, ByVal lpstrLinkPath As
String, ByVal lpstrLinkArgs As String) As Long
'
Dim lReturn As Long
'Add to Desktop
'lReturn = fCreateShellLink("..\..\Desktop", _
'"Shortcut to Calculator", "c:\windows\calc.exe", "")
'Add to Program Menu Group
'lReturn = fCreateShellLink("", "Shortcut to
'Calculator", "c:\windows\calc.exe", "")
'Add to Startup Group
'Note that on Windows NT, the shortcut will not actually appear
'in the Startup group until your next reboot.
'lReturn = fCreateShellLink("\Startup", "Shortcut to
'Calculator", "c:\windows\calc.exe", "")
hi again,
i tried the above code but i discovered that FcreateShellLink version for VB6 is OSfCreateShellLink
and its decleration is
as noted above there's 2 extra arguments:Code:Declare Function OSfCreateShellLink Lib "vb6stkit.dll" _
Alias "fCreateShellLink" (ByVal lpstrFolderName As String, _
ByVal lpstrLinkName As String, ByVal lpstrLinkPath As _
String, ByVal lpstrLinkArguments As String, ByVal fPrivate _
As Long, ByVal sParent As String) As Long
sParent
fPrivate
