    I'm sure I've seen this asked here before but of course i failed to pay attention when it didn't apply to what i was doing at that paticular moment...

    When I install my app. on the users computer how can i get a shortcut to show up on the desktop??
    I'm just using the Package and Deployment Wizard that comes with VB6

    Sorry if this has been asked a million times...

    That works but i sorta wanted to do it before my app. was ran for the first time so the user didn't have to look thru the start menu and whatnot...
