Yeah, I've got the 'UNLINK()' UDF now which looks like I could modify it to perhaps grab more info than it currently does. I cannot find the EditShortCut UDF, I did a search but it turned up nothing, is there a hidden gold-mine of UDFs somewhere else that may have this one? (I got a reply from M$ forums too.. yay - maybe I'll actually finish this off in time for it to be rejected by management )
