Hi, I wanna create a batch file that when I run the file it will generate a shortcut for an URL that I want on the desktop. Does anyone knows how to do it, I did a google search but not much luck

Copy a shortcut to your desktop and open it in notepad. You will then see what it contains. you only need the [DEFAULT] and [InternetShortcut] values.

Then just create a text document witht he values you want and save it with a ".url" extention.

@echo off
if %1'==' echo you need a URL && goto :eof

pushd "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop"
> my.URL echo [InternetShortcut]
>> my.URL echo URL=http://www.%1
popd

=====================================
If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.
