Sparrowlord Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 When you right click a shortcut and go to properties there is a line that says "Taget: " How would I be able to find the target? I look in the help file but I don't know if it is under something different that I don't know about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kandie Man Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Look at the FileGetShortcut() function in the helpfile. The example even gives the target you are requesting. - The Kandie Man ;-) "So man has sown the wind and reaped the world. Perhaps in the next few hours there will no remembrance of the past and no hope for the future that might have been." & _"All the works of man will be consumed in the great fire after which he was created." & _"And if there is a future for man, insensitive as he is, proud and defiant in his pursuit of power, let him resolve to live it lovingly, for he knows well how to do so." & _"Then he may say once more, 'Truly the light is sweet, and what a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to see the sun.'" - The Day the Earth Caught Fire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picaxe Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 If you mean finding control id, class, classname etc of the "target" control. Then use AU3Info, available from the tools drop down menu in SciTE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

setirich Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Wow...must be a run on Windows Lnk's today...better get 'ur order in early...See this...(someone else had a question about links so this is still in clip...talk about lazy... http://mediasrv.ns.ac.yu/extra/fileformat/...nk/shortcut.pdfLooking at that, you can see how to get the specific info your looking for...but as for specifics, I'd defer to someone who has more experiance with IShellLink than I. Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters.-Daniel Webster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picaxe Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 The Kandie Man was right, as per the AutoIt help files examples slightly modified FileCreateShortcut(@WindowsDir & "\Explorer.exe",@DesktopDir & "\Shortcut Test.lnk",@WindowsDir,"/e,c:\", "This is an Explorer link;-)", @SystemDir & "\shell32.dll", "^!t", "15", @SW_MINIMIZE) ; Read in the path of a shortcut $array = FileGetShortcut(@DesktopDir & "\Shortcut Test.lnk") $j = "" $j &= "Shortcut target path: " & $array[0] & @CRLF $j &= "Working directory: " & $array[1] & @CRLF $j &= "Arguments: " & $array[2] & @CRLF $j &= "Description: " & $array[3] & @CRLF $j &= "Icon filename: " & $array[4] & @CRLF $j &= "Icon index: " & $array[5] & @CRLF $j &= "The shortcut state: " & $array[6] & @CRLF & @CRLF $j &= "Target = " & $array[0] & " " & $array[2] MsgBox(0, "Path:", $j) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
