Allows you to create a shortcut to an Internet resource programmatically.
Remarks
The WshUrlShortcut object is a child object of the WshShell object — you must use the WshShell method CreateShortcut to create a WshUrlShortcut object (e.g., WshShell.CreateShortcut(strDesktop & "\Shortcut Script.lnk")).
Example
The following example demonstrates the creation of a URL shortcut to www.microsoft.com.
<package>
<job id="vbs">
<script language="VBScript">
set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
set oUrlLink = WshShell.CreateShortcut(strDesktop & "\Microsoft Web Site.url")
oUrlLink.TargetPath = "http://www.microsoft.com"
oUrlLink.Save
</script>
</job>
<job id="js">
<script language="JScript">
var WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell");
var oUrlLink = WshShell.CreateShortcut(strDesktop + "\\Microsoft Web Site.url");
oUrlLink.TargetPath = "http://www.microsoft.com";
oUrlLink.Save();
</script>
</job>
</package>
