IS there a way to create a batch file which would put a desktop icon onto
the desktop which invokes an html page in a web browswer (MSIE) and change
the associated icon for that particular desktop item, all in one batch file?
Thanks, Ike
 
--------------------Launches a HTML page---------------
echo [InternetShortcut] >"%userprofile%\desktop\localpage.url"
echo URL=C:\myfile.htm >>"%userprofile%\desktop\localpage.url"
echo IconFile=C:\favicon.ico >>"%userprofile%\desktop\localpage.url"
echo IconIndex=0 >>"%userprofile%\desktop\localpage.url"
------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------Launches a website--------------------
