I have been able to successfully distribute several VFP 5.0a applications (via diskette and network) within my organization. One problem I am consistently experiencing in Windows 95 installations is that after the user runs the SETUP, there are no 'shortcuts' or icons poiting to the .EXE anywhere, and in my instructions to the users, I must always include some fairly technical steps they must follow in order to create a shortcut with the desired icon. Can anyone assist me in ensuring that the SETUP 'finishes' the job and generates a proper shortcut with the desired icon on either the users 95 desktop or minimally within their START button program list?

TIA
