2 arguments required

[syracuse]

ok, this should be pretty basic- I'm new to autoplay and don't have a lot of html exp.

A shortcut is being created to open a folder at a user specified destination.
Syntax errors don't come up but during the preview, after the files are copied I' getting ... 2 arguments required.

Shell.CreateShortcut(Shell.GetFolder(SHF_DESKTOP), "Codefinder", Dialog.FolderBrowse ( "\\Codefinder" ),"","","",_WindowsFolder.. "\\explorer.exe", 1, SW_SHOWNORMAL);

I appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks

that is real bad usage of Dialog.FolderBrowse, you should always check this function for a return value also you have droped some arguments, closed off function statments in the wrong places, have not closed off the main function with ")" and the shortcut dose not link to any file.

what exactly are you trying to achive ?

EDIT, ok i should read

A shortcut is being created to open a folder at a user specified destination.

heres how if should look

local strFolder = Dialog.FolderBrowse("Please select a folder:", _DesktopFolder);
if strFolder ~= "CANCEL" then
	Shell.CreateShortcut(Shell.GetFolder(SHF_DESKTOP), "Codefinder", strFolder, "", "", "", 0, SW_SHOWNORMAL, nil);
end

Thanks for the reply... still having troulble.

Currently:

Files have been saved into a user selected folder.
a shortcut has been creaed on the desktop. (needs to open previously selected folder)
the shortcut brings up window, error: item this shortcut points to has move, does not exist- no target in properties.

How do I link it to the storage path? Problem is around 2nd shell.getfolder

Line 10 looks like this..

Shell.CreateShortcut(Shell.GetFolder(SHF_DESKTOP), "Codefinder","Shell.GetFolder\\Codefinder", "", "", "", 0, SW_SHOWNORMAL, nil);

Again, any comments are appreciated.
