Mapping to a Special Folder
Mapping special folders, such as the My Documents desktop folder, requires the use of the Shell object. The following scripts demonstrate the use of the Shell object to create a shortcut to a folder on the desktop.
Example
// JScript.
var Shell, DesktopPath, URL;
Shell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
DesktopPath = Shell.SpecialFolders("Desktop");
URL = Shell.CreateShortcut(DesktopPath + "\\MSDN Scripting.url");
URL.TargetPath = "HTTP://MSDN.Microsoft.com/scripting/";
URL.Save();
' VBScript.
Dim Shell, DesktopPath, URL
Set Shell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
DesktopPath = Shell.SpecialFolders("Desktop")
Set URL = Shell.CreateShortcut(DesktopPath & "\MSDN Scripting.URL")
URL.TargetPath = "HTTP://MSDN.Microsoft.com/scripting/"
URL.Save
