That's exactly the API I am using in my utility.  However you list it as  
if it's a regular C-style API function called 'GetPath' when in fact it's  
a COM object method 'IShellLink::GetPath' which therefore cannot be called  
 from Liberty Basic:

There *is* a regular API function called GetPath, but it's totally  
different (it's a graphics function and nothing to do with shortcuts):
