Dear Gary

Try this :-

 

Sub CreateShortCut(sFullFileOrFolderPathWithExtension As String, sShortcutTitle As String)

Dim sPathDeskTop As String

    With CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

        sPathDeskTop = .SpecialFolders("Deskt op") & "\"

        With .CreateShortCut(sPathDeskTop & sShortcutTitle & ".lnk")

            .TargetPath = sFullFileOrFolderPathWithExtension

            .Save

        End With

    End With

End Sub

To keep it simple I did not put in error checking and I did not test it with folder names containing spaces. 

Regards
