Has anybody had any luck launching a shortcut icon via VB6?  I'm having issue 
launching a Powerterm session where if I launch it manually via the shortcut, 
it works, but if I try to launch the actual executable via script, it prompts 
me to enter credentials, server etc.

I've also noticed, if, off a fresh boot, I try to launch the executable, not 
the shortcut, it prompts me to enter credentials, host and everything, then if 
I launch the shortcut, then close, the executable will launch manually like the 
shortcut every time, as if the connection is cached.  However, it won't launch 
via script at this point.

I've tried to create my own psl script, but when it launches, BWS won't read 
the screen, it displays it, but when you try to read any characters, you get a 
blank string.  The display, even though I've set all the settings like the 
shortcut, has the fields 'sunk in' like a VB textbox.

I either need to figure out why my script isn't working, or figure out a way to 
launch the shortcut.  What I've found in searches, never launches anything, 
such as using Shell Start, Shell Launch, or Shell Open.
