First simple script

[bristolweatherman]

I am new to autoIt. I have skills in php, html and very basic vb but this is all new....

I would like to create a script to add a shortcut to a desktop. I intend to e-mail the script to other users in my organisation so that when they run the script it adds the shortcut to their desktop.

We use windows XP throughout the organisation.

The shortcut is Q:\QLEasyaccess\V2QLHEASYACCESS.mdb

C:\Documents and Settings\m.stuart\Desktop is where I think the shortcut needs to go.

Yours hopefully

Welcome,

You may need a UNC path for across a network

An example of shortcut creation

FileCreateShortcut('Q:\QLEasyaccess\V2QLHEASYACCESS.mdb', @DesktopDir & '\V2QLHEASYACCESS.lnk', 'Q:\QLEasyaccess')
