    Post Create Shortcut

    Does anyone know how to copy a file to another place? As well as how to create a shortcut in a specific path?
    Thanks

    You can use the system() function which is like typing at a DOS prompt.
    Code:
    #include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;

// ...

sprintf(szCmd, "copy %s %s", szSrc, szDest);
system(szCmd);
