You could do either of the following:
1) From your application you could call a script. On msdn, there are
samples of scripts that are used for creating shortcuts.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/script56/ht
ml/wsconcreatingshortcut.asp

2) use the Stkit432.dll that comes with VB. See link on msdn Kb article for
more info:

Hope this helps you out.
