I need to place a shortcut on everyone's PC in the office to a program we're running on the server ... so I need them all to get a shorcut to the executable.

I want to create a batch file that creates a shortcut on the desktop, then place this batch file on our shared drive, then have everyone run it on their machine.

How do I create a batch file to create a shortcut to an application on a network server?

It might be easier to copy the shortcut to all
PCs in your Office via Network.
(Thats what I do; with a batchfile).
