Okay, gurus, you've helped me get this far, now....
Is there a WMI method to edit a desktop shortcut? Specifically, I need to
change the argument string from an IP address to the DNS name the IP
resolves to. For example, if the Target text of the shortcut is
c:\foo\foo.exe 255.255.255.255 1024
I need to change the "argument" part so the Target text becomes (if that
IP resolves to FOO15)
c:\foo\foo.exe FOO15 1024
Is there a way to do this? Or is it possible to edit the .lnk file in
Perl? It seems to be in binmode (I think?), and the argument part is
interspersed with CHR(0)'s between every character...
Thanks again,
