Please help me and my short cut

[minnie mouse]

Hi all, could some one please give me some help. i have the following line in my code

FileCreateShortcut ('%windir%\explorer.exe /n,/root,' & EnvGet("HOMESHARE"), $profile & "\Local Settings\Offline Cache\My Network Area.lnk")

it creates a shortcut with a target of "%windir%\explorer.exe /n,/root,\\nhs-sr-002\user$"

it dosnt work cos of the quotes (") at the being an the end, how can I remove them so it sets the target to

%windir%\explorer.exe /n,/root,\\nhs-sr-002\adamw$

Thanks

it works for me, when I had that directory created... do check to see if it exist exactly as it stands, I got no error message if it didn't exist.

just tried again

when i check the shortcut tharget its in quotes...... when i remove them it works...

works with both " and ' for me... but if it works without quotes, use that way

edit:

Ah.... I see what you mean, I missread the question (stoopid) it's the target that is faulty... I'll see if I can see what the problem is.

but autoit is adding the quotes to the target...... which stops the shortcut working

This one works... add the ,/n,/root as arguments instead...

FileCreateShortcut (@WindowsDir & "\explorer.exe ",  $profile & "\Local Settings\Offline Cache\My Network Area.lnk",@WindowsDir,"/n,/root," & EnvGet("HOMESHARE") )
