Can I ask a question?

Is there a reason for you to surround the source and destination with parenthesis?

I think what you want is:
 Code:
If InGroup("Project", "LKP", 1)
Copy "\\server01\TS\Projectstart.lnk" "%userprofile%\Desktop\Programs"
EndIF


If the original code is from AutoIT, and if memory serves, it uses parenthesis..

HTH,

Kent
