   That is a solution for the current computer.   
      
   The idea is to have the shortcut on an USB (thumb)drive, and have it work   
   even when its put into another 'puter (and getting another drive letter ).   
      
      
   Thanks for the program.   
      
   ... but a quick look at its readme.txt file does seem to indicate its also   
   only uses full pathnames ...
