Is there a way to make a shortcut icon that when double clicked it executes a set of keystrokes?

You could install AutoIt and then make that shortcut so it points to an AutoIt script. This script would launch the application and type the keystrokes for you.

I am interested in which key strokes you are interested in executing from the desktop.
I am thinking, depending on your use, that a .bat file might fit the order better.
