Deployment / setup project - shortcuts

et al,

I know how to create shortcuts in the File System Editor to be
installed. The ones I've got in there now install and work fine.

But I need to create a 'special' shortcut.

It needs to run notepad.exe (the one that comes w/ windows) w/ the
arguement at the end of "c:\Program Files\app\myscript.bat".

On the command line it looks like this:
notepad.exe "c:\Program Files\app\myscript.bat"

Now, the shortcut I've created to the .bat file to run it works
flawlessly. But I need to create a shortcut that will launch the .bat
into notepad for changes, if need be.

I have the start menu folders created that that's where I'd like to put
them.

any ideas?
thx.
