What's the problem with making a loader program for your app that:
1. More work than creating a shortcut, presumably.
2. This software is also used by other organizations not on my LAN. In that
case, I don't need and can't use a simple shortcut, but having one doesn't
cause a problem. Having a loader program, on the other hand, creates a
significant program as to where should the update be and how should it be
retrieved.
A loader is a solution to a different problem, and a more complex one than
I need.
Tracy's response is very workable. If I could get the actual dynamic
shortcut created, that would save a couple steps but it's not a big deal if
it can't be done.
Thanks.
