    .lnk files (shortcuts)

    I am using Installshield (i think its 3.x as is on diff comp and too lazy to check ) and it allows u to create shortcuts that appear on the desktop and program menu.

    This is all well and good except that:

    1. the created lnk file should normally allow the user to edit the target, shortcut key, icon etc if they rightclick on the desktop icon, select properties and select the shortcut tab.

    2. the version created thru installshield disables (greys) all entries and command buttons on the shortcut tab of the properties form as per the example pic.



    Anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it 'within' Installshield? As far as i can see IS doesnt give u access to the scripts .. so i dunno if can be fixed there.

    Thanks
