Use fCreateShellLink (you need Vb5stkit.dll in the directory of your app)

Private Declare Function fCreateShellLink Lib "Vb5stkit.dll" (ByVal _
       lpstrFolderName As String, ByVal lpstrLinkName As String, ByVal _
       lpstrLinkPath As String, ByVal lpstrLinkArgs As String) As Long


'Function that creates shell links
        lReturn = fCreateShellLink("..\startup", sCaption, Text1.text, "")

There is code from the VB6 Pro CD that creates shortcuts.
