I tried everything to make a shortcut to the photo printing wizard utility in windows XP.. But I couldn’t figure it out… This is the program I want to make a shortcut to..

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/digitalphotography/learnmore/waystoprint.mspx

(It’s when you insert a CD of pictures in windows XP, the autoplay comes up with an option called “photo printing wizard”. This wizard allows you to print all pictures as thumbnails, full pages, and a bunch of different sizes.... )

there is no .exe to this utility. It seems as thought it can only be ran through “my pictures” in the left pane ---or—it autoplays when a picture cd is inserted..

any ideas?
 
The file used is photowiz.dll. You can theoretically create a shortcut with "rundll32.exe photowiz.dll, xxxx" where xxxx is the command that tells it to launch, but finding that command will be the tough part.
 
yey, tell me about it :p... i have no idea why MS did it like this.. I will google some more tomorrow, will post if i figure out the problem

thanks
