See Win32::Shortcut. Unfortunately, that module includes no POD documentation so you'll probably also want to see google's take on it in order to find a nice example. Unforunately, the only good on-line documentation links that I found were all locked-out or illegal links to O'Reilly book contents. So just grab the libwin32 distribution from cpan (follow the first link I gave), unpack it, and then load Shortcut/docs/reference.html into your local browser).
