Create VB shortcut to a folder

Hello,

I'm using Excel 2003 and want to programmaticly create shortcuts to folders. When I try the program below it works when the destiny is a file, but I need to open Windows Explorer with the shortcut.
When using 'my' code a shortcut is placed in the right folder but when opening it a window pops up and asks with what application I want to open it, instead of Windows Explorer with the target folder.
Looking at the properties of that shortcut it does say it's a folder-type.

So, what is going wrong???

Greetz, CJ.



The shortcuts must be placed in one folder: C:\destiny\~shortcuts\
The folders themselves are in: C:\customers\john doe\

I've marked original with 'ORIGINAL and my work with 'MY EDIT

Your szBookFullName appears to be missing a drive letter. (your code works fine for me)

Placed the [code] things and it does look much better!
And yes, filling in the missing drive-letter solves the problem!

Thanx.
