    <p>Great code! Out of curiosity, since this works for the directory the script is currently in, do you have a way to get it to show up in every directory? Otherwise, it doesn't seem like there's much difference between learning this and learning to make a shortcut the native way. You would still have to drag and drop the script into the current folder, wouldn't you?</p> <p>While stumbling toward a solution, I got as far as letting users navigate to and select a particular file they need to link to. I don't know if you would have any use for that. </p> <pre><code>Dim diaSelectFile Set diaSelectFile = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker) diaSelectFile.Show strPickedFile = diaSelectFile.SelectedItems(1) Set diaSelectFile = Nothing Dim oWsh Dim myshortcut Dim oShortcut Dim strSplitFileName Dim strTarget Dim nShortName Set oWsh = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") strSplitFileName = Split(strPickedFile, "\") nShortName = UBound(strSplitFileName) strTarget = strSplitFileName(nShortName) myshortcut = "C:\users\%USERNAME%\Desktop\" &amp; strTarget &amp; " - Shortcut" &amp; ".lnk" Set oShortcut = oWsh.CreateShortcut(myshortcut) With oShortcut .TargetPath = strPickedFile .Save End With Set oWsh = Nothing Set oShortcut = Nothing </code></pre> <p>Again, though, this feels more complex than right-clicking and sending a shortcut to the desktop. Who are the users that need this? I know I've had austistic friends who struggle with what we might consider basic tasks on the computer. I'd definitely be interested to know if the script you came up with actually helps your clientele.</p>

    1. COThank you for the input. At my office, most of the people are typing with 2 fingers (if you see what I mean). The secretary is however just a little bit better, enough to cut/paste the VBS into the right folder. She just has to send a direct link to the VBS by email to all employees with some instructions and the shortcut will be automatically added to their desktop.

    2. COAs for showing up the VBS in all (sub)directories, it would be easy to copy the scriptin each subdirectories and name it `_shortcut.vbs`. There could be a `_shortcutGen.vbs` on the root that generates the current `_shortcut.vbs` and duplicates it into all subfolders.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
