No it isn't because shortcuts are not executable. Shortcuts are files which can be interpreted by the windows explorer.
You can run a shortcut via the shell execute function. Attached is a VI which will call this function. In "Dateiname" you have to supply the filename with extension. In "Verzeichnis" you have to supply the folder where the file is. You can set the verb to "open" which will run the application and "print" which will cause the application to print the file if it can. "Rückgabe" is the return from the shell execute function.
You can use each file extension to start the registered application for the file. If you give a file with the name Test.vi you will start LabVIEW in the same way you will start it like you have double clicked th
e file in the explorer.
