How to create shortcuts (I am using Speedfolders)
Hi,
I am new to IA, I am using Enterprise edition of IA 2008.
I am facing problem with creation of shortcuts. I am packaging my java application, which is very much straight forward thing.But I want to create short cuts on my desktop and programs folder. The problem i am facing is as I am using speed folder, I was unable to locate the .bat files under Installed file--> Choose target. How do I specify the .bat file in this case. But using speed folder is must for me. Please give your suggestions as soon as possible.

Perhaps add your shortcut target as a normal file link, and then specify that same file as an exclusion in the SpeedFolder settings?

Is the shortcut being created in the wrong place, or not being created at all? Does a shortcut work in a simpler test project?

I am trying to create the shortcut under the following directory
"Programs folder/$Companyname$/$productname$"
but I am able to create shortcut under "Programs folder". If I try to create the short cut under "Programs folder/$Companyname$/$productname$" it is not happening.I tried setting the user_magic_folder1 variable value to
$WIN_PROGRAMS_MENU$\Wavecenter\$PRODUCT_NAME$.Please let me know what else I have to do?

It works fine now. Issue is due to typo mistakes, the variable USER_MAGIC_FOLDER has some gaps in between but are not visible in the IA GUI. Guys please take care of this during your development time.Thanks alot for all your support.
