    I want to create a windows type shortcut to a file in an autolisp routine and wondered if anyone can help me. Is it a vl-?? type command? If it is possible it will probably name it "Shortcut to filenename.extension".

    Any help would be great.

    You can do this with a call to the Windows API.
    Maybe someone has some example lisp code. I have only done this using VBA.
