    Creating a Shortcut (Solved)

    Guys, how do I create a shortcut? I read it was using CShell or something like that which is included in Microsoft Scripting... Is this the only way?

    And if it is... Could you give me an example of how to do it on C#? I tried and I couldn't.. (Maybe I should have had to make a reference to Microsoft Script)

    Thanks in advance!

    If you are worry about creating a shortcut to your exe file while installation , then I bet you won't face any problems if you used WisePackage or InstallSheild or even Packaging tools included with your VS.NET . This is how to do it in VS.NET Deployment Project

    and this is how to create shortcut for external programs.

    Thank you, guys.. I found a way to do it but I appreciate it.

    Oh... Just another thought.. How can I make a Shell call like on VB 6?

    Shell("MyApplication.exe")

    Thanks in advance
