Objects/Zoomers!

Name!

from WinCustomize Forums
1) Downloaded Objects/Zoomers are basically already named. Can the name be changed?
2) Additionally can anybody advise how to link the objects/zoomers with My Computer.
Example: If I create any object /zoomer on my desktop for expl. iMac, how to link it to open My Computer if the link is not already given?

You can always add this script to get My Computer shortcut

Function Object_OnLButtonUp(x,y,dragged)
If dragged = False Then
Set Sh = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
On Error Resume Next
Folder = Sh.RegRead("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders\My Computer")
Sh.Run Explorer & Chr(34) & Folder & Chr(34)
Set Sh = Nothing
End If
End Function

How odd.

You can link to almost any "special" Windows folder just my changing the object type to shortcut and eitehr browsing to a folder or choosing one of the defaults . . but not My computer.

Interesting.

One way I've found for a My computer short cut in DesktopX is
1 make your object, set it up as shortcut to explorer.exe and in the arguments paste this text ::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}

Basically very boring to set some special shortcuts! If I want to change (set) the name for my OD+ icons I just type it in. But this DesktopX is funny! This is the reason why I don't like it!
