If you mean making a shortcut to your application (or any file for that matter), the answer is "yes". You do: create alias <aliasPath> to file <fileOrAppPath> So to create an alias to "C:\Program Files\MyApp\MyApp.exe" you'd do: put specialFolderPath("desktop") & "/MyApp.lnk" into tAlias create alias tAlias to file "C:/Program Files/MyApp/MyApp.exe" Note that inside Rev, all paths use the "/" delimiter, regardless of platform. Rev does understand the "native" file delimiter ("\" in Windows and ":" in Macintosh) most of the time, but it's a good habit to get into to start using the "/" delimiter as often as possible.
