How to create a shortcut for a new application?

How to create a shortcut for all users in Win 7 and Win 8?

Hi,
I'll trying to make a script that will create a shortcut in every user profile account in a computer. I stumble upon the script below from
http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/Create-shortcut-in-your-11cfd3de/view/Discussions#content.
Option Explicit
On Error Resume Next
Dim objShell
Dim objDesktop
Dim objLink
Dim strAppPath
Dim strWorkDir
Dim strIconPath
strWorkDir ="C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office15"
strAppPath = "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office15\ORGCHART.EXE" 'you have to use your URL to Interanet site or path to specific program
'strIconPath = "\\server\Xyz.ico" 'specify the path to the icon please change to your valid path
Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
'objDesktop = objShell.SpecialFolders("Desktop")
Set objLink = objShell.CreateShortcut("C:\Users\%userprofile%\Desktop\Org_chart_test.lnk") 'change here To your shortcut name
objLink.Description = "this is a test" 'replaec with your description
'objLink.IconLocation = strIconPath
objLink.TargetPath = strAppPath
objLink.WindowStyle = 3
objLink.WorkingDirectory = strWorkDir
objLink.Save
I did some modifications to cater to my need. Now the question is, how can I make the script create a shortcut for every user profile from the script above?
Any inputs would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

You could create the shortcut at one machine, then copy it to the target as part of the logon script. Note also that this line contains an error:
"C:\Users\%userprofile%\Desktop\Org_chart_test.lnk"
It should read:
"%userprofile%\Desktop\Org_chart_test.lnk"

Wont create a shortcut on desktop.

After running my app the second time, it does NOT ask me if I want to create a shortcut, but I want it to. How do I make it do this? I tried adding <offline-allowed/> to the information block, but to no avail.
please help.

I'm Windows with 1.4.0_01 (Webstart 1.0.1)
I left a Webstart icon on the desktop, and clicking on that gets me the Manager. The program is C:\Program Files\Java Web Start\javaws.exe that starts. You might find it and start it directly and see what you get.
I'm guessing that you're starting an application, not the manager.

How to create Keyboard Shortcuts to Activate Buttons without the Mouse?

Is there a way to create keyboard shortcuts in HTMLDB like CTRL+N to activate the Create New button, CTRL+S to Save the record, etc?
Thanks.

I haven't tried this myself, but you could always add an attribute to the control called accesskey. Use this link for further information: http://www.netmechanic.com/news/vol4/accessibility_no19.htm
If the control is a button you will need to make sure that it is an html button so that you can modify the attributes.

CS4-How to create a shortcut for media browser icon clean up function?

Hi again.
I recently upgraded my system, now running CS4 suite in Window 7 - 64bits. This to be able to manage AVCHD files within premiere.
I'm just starting to work with it and I'm missing the ability to create a shortcut for this function I had in PP2 cs2. I did go to the recommended reading before posing my question. There the most appropriate area I could find was about Bins Behaviours, at least I thought it was, and there was nothing in it.
I have gone to Edit / keyboard customization then each of the 3 choices, application, panels and tools. but could not see "Clean Up"
I hope someone has an answer for me as I like to use this panel as a story board and use this function often and thank those who will try to help me.
(I'm pleased that my avchd files are now coming nicely on the timeline!)_

How to create a shortcut menu in the VIEW panel of Diadem

Hi everyone,
Is it possible to create your own shortcut menu in the VIEW Panel of Diadem?

Hi Ovidius,
What do you mean by "shortcut" menu? You can add a custom menu to the top of any DIAdem panel and fill it with whatever menu items you want. You can also add/customize any icons at the top or the left of any DIAdem panel and program them to do what you want. There is additionally limited support in DIAdem 2010 and prior versions for adding custom context menus to VIEW areas. We are looking into expanding this support for DIAdem 2011.
