Shortcut of a Shortcut

There is no such thing as a shortcut to a shortcut in the Windows File System.  If you create a shortcut from a shortcut then you just get a shortcut to the original target.  You can programmatically create a shortcut to a shortcut using CLSID_ShellLink, however Windows will not render the icon correctly, or navigate the end target correctly.
