I am using SF 6.0.1.2. In order to access the quick launch bar (on XP), I need some builtin variable pointing to something like
"C:\Documents and Settings\(userid)\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch". I think such a variable is not available yet. Is there some workaround ?

I believe you should be able to find a registry entry for the path to the current user's "Application Data" directory in the following key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders
The Value there is AppData

So you could read in that "data" and then append the string "Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch" to create the path of the shortcut.

Hope that helps.
