Execution from server

I have a program on an XP box on a local network. I want to create a shortcut to that program on another machine. I can create the shortcut, but when the program starts, it brings up a debug screen and gives me a massage that says 'Invalid URL'. The debug window shows a NULL URL. I don't know why a URL is being requested, or how to prevent that from happening. I have a second program that I can successfully invoke from the second machine. One difference between the two programs is that the one that does not work references a dll that is part of the vb.net solution. Any clues would be appreciated.

How are you sharing the file? Have you put it in a shared directory? Are the other boxes set up with user accounts on the XP box? What path do you have in the shortcuts properties? Can you see the file on the network? Have you tried registering the DLL on the problem box?
