Hi,
Make a Shortcut then Right Click it - Properties - Shortcut tab - put the arguments at the end of
the Target.
Hope this helps.

Okay, I'm sure that the answer to this question is buried in the back of my brain but I can't find it. I poked around on this forum and searched with google.
Here's the situation. I have a little program, lets call it foo.exe, that I want to run that gets it's configuration from a couple command line arguments.
How the heck do I specify the arguments in the properties box for either the program or the shortcut?
Essentially I want to have "foo.exe /A /B" and be able to double click it and have it run.
Thanks.

Well, that was easy enough. I was putting quotes around the arguments because some were file names and had spaces in the names. turns out that wasn't necessary.
Thanks.
