Thanks for the pointer. I assume these are created with the mklink command (which can only be run from the administrative level on my Windows machine). Waiting for my IT department to grant me permission. I contrast that with symbolic links on U*NIX-like systems which can be used at any time by your average Joe and since their invention some 50+ years ago.
