Conditional Short Cuts

Anyone have any insight into how I can make the addition of Short-Cuts conditional on the operating system?

I'm doing a Basic MSI that only supports XP and Vista... the XP Shortcut will be placed in the regular Start Menu->Programs Menu->Publisher->Game->Game.exe... but the Vista shortcut is to be placed in the Games "directory"...

Thank You in advance....

Cavan,
When you create a shortcut under the Shortcuts view of InstallShield, the program will ask you associate the shortcut with a component. All you need is to create 2 shortcuts, and associate each shortcut to a Component that has a Condition set to the particular OS.

See the help section "Building Conditional Statements" to learn how to create a Component that is OS dependent.
