What do the two arguments for this function exactly mean?

--------------
WindowsShortCutMBS.ResolveShortCut(DisableGUI as boolean=false, 
DisableSearch as boolean=false) as boolean

Function: Resolves the shortcut.
Notes: Fills the properties target, description, Argument, 
WorkingDirectory, Icon and IconID. Returns false on any error.

DisableGUI: Do not display a dialog box if the link cannot be 
resolved. The time-out duration will be set to the default value of 
3,000 milliseconds (3 seconds).

DisableSearch: Do not execute the search heuristics.
--------------

For DisableGUI, are you talking about the standard Windows "Missing 
Shortcut" dialog? And what does "time out value" mean?

What is a "search heuristic"?

I tried using this rtBool = ResolveShortCut(true, true) on a link 
that couldn't be resolved, but it still returned True, no GUI was 
shown (even though it should have), and the Location parameter was 
changed to the Path it is SUPPOSED TO resolve to, but I knew it 
didn't exist. Your docs seem to imply that it should have returned 
false. And why was no Windows standard Missing Shortcut displayed?
