    Code:
    'In declarations put:
    Declare Function fCreateShellLink Lib "STKIT432.DLL" (ByVal lpstrFolderName As String, ByVal lpstrLinkName As String, ByVal lpstrLinkPath As String, ByVal lpstrLinkArgs As String) As Long
    'In code:
    fCreateShellLink "C:\Windows\Desktop", Linkname, pathtoyourapp, ""

    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
