Type mismatch 'CreateShortcut '

[dkallen]

In the VStudio.bld sample
the step Create log shortcut works great.
But when I try to create one , it doesn't work.
As a test, I have a small text file on my hard drive.
c:\dir.txt

I use CreateShortcut as a VBScript with one line

CreateShortcut "C:\dir.txt", "test"

I run it and get

Building project step 'Create log shortcut'...
Error at Line 1, Column 1 (Type mismatch: 'CreateShortcut')
Step 'Create log shortcut' failed
Build ended.

I can find no documentation on CreateShortcut

thanks
