Author How to create application's group under Start\Program menu using fCreateShellLink

I am working in VB6 and need to create a group "My Achievements" in
Start\Program menu. I wish to provide access to my applications from
within this newly created group "My Achievements".

I searched this on Internet and most of the people recommend
fCreateShellLink API to achieve this. I have used this api as
follows.

fSuccess = fCreateShellLink("$(Programs)" & vbNullChar, strLinkName,
strLinkPath, strLinkArguments & vbNullChar, fPrivate, "$(Programs)")


This creates the shortcut to my application in "Program" menu, but I
wish to create a group and the shortcut to my applications should
reside in that group.

Any help will be highly appreciated.

Regards,

Faiz
