I have developed an IDL application for a customer who
has FULL IDL licenses.
However, the users of this application will not know IDL.
(Several people using the same computer, what a concept!)
How can I get a pretty icon on the desktop to launch my app
from the desktop?
I don't want the "common" usert to be able to tell that
my App is in IDL. Just click on an icon, and a GUI
pops up, just liek everything else on Windoze.
Can this be done?
In UNIX, I'd write a script to launch command-line IDL and
run my app. But they took out command line support under WIN32

Yes.

Yes. Just do it!

This association should already have been set up for
you by the IDL installer.
