MSIShortcutProperty in InstallScript Project

Hello,

we have a large project written in an InstallScript-Project without MSI-Setup. Now we try to set the MSIShortcutProperty Table for the shortcuts in Windows 7.
Is there any solution to set the table without converting the project to MSI?

Thanks for your help in advance.

You can't use the MsiShortcutProperty table without Windows Installer, but that table is just a data-driven interface to the IPropertyStore interface. I believe Raymond Chen offered some C++ code recently for working with IPropertyStore. You may be able to translate this to InstallScript (and swap out the properties in question for the ones you want to use).
