does anyone know how i can make an icon for my blackberry desktop and have it link to a internet shortcut? we have to use this certain site all the time for work and i wanted to make it easier to access. Thanks in advance

Try this shortcut tool, i've never used it but it's suppose to do what you would like.

the shortcut tool launchers a user configured website - it's a simple app that allows people to visit their favourite website with a single click rather than having to laauch the blackberry browser, enter bookmarks and choose their site.

Tried it and it works fine! cool little app!

[booboomc21]

how do you use this thing. it just has a couple files that i cant open

[srl7741]

Unzip the files to a folder and use your desktop manager to install the app. Point to the .alx file for the install.

Do you know you if there is a way to change the icon or the name for this app?

Because I would like to use this app, for about 15 end users, but I would like to at least change the name if possible!!!!

[srl7741]

No i don't think you can change the icon? I don't think the name can be changed either?

I've never used it. I just happen to find it and the first post/user was looking for something like it so i thought i would help or try to help some.

Well, I figure I ask. Either way you've been more than helpful. Thanks!

works great, thanks for the heads up. I would like to know how to change that icon to a more suitable shortcut.

This sounds promising, would you happen to know who developed it, I was thinking about trying to get something designed for our site.
