Adding a shortcut in the start menu in PPC2003

I used the method to create a .msi install file given in the article:

http://smartdevices.microsoftdev.com/Learn/Articles/566.aspx

I added the rows

[Shortcuts]
MyApp,0,MyApp.exe,%CE11%
MyApp,0,MyApp.exe,%CE17%

to the .inf file to add shortcuts to programs folder and start menu. This
works fine under PPC2002 but not in PPC2003. I.e. I don't get any start meny
short cut in PPC2003 run devices... Was there a change between the two OSs?
Am I missing something here?

There is a shortcut in the programs folder in both cases.

br,

Peter
 
To answer my own question:

[DestinationDirs]
Shortcuts=0,%CE2%\Start Menu

This is what I had in my .inf as well. The Start Meny directory is already
pointed to, and by removing %CE17% from the line which should install the
start menu short cut I got it to work.

[Shortcuts]
MyApp,0,MyApp.exe,%CE11%
MyApp,0,MyApp.exe

regards,

Peter
