Shortcut Question

A few years ago I created a shortcut class using the correct functions/COM
interfaces(IShellLinkA,/IShellLinkW/GUID's...)

I use this class to create shortcuts the correct way not streamwriter but
does use StringBuilder... & it works 100% perfectly, but I need to know the
following:

On my application startup I need to read the arguements of the shortcut.
Here's an example:

Shortcut Target (shortcut properties):

"[PATH TO EXE HERE]" /advanced
"[PATH TO EXE HERE]" /simple

So, I need to know if the target is either 'advanced' or 'easy' & select the
appropriate radiobutton

rdoNone (no shortcut exists)
rdoSimple (target arguments = 'simple')
rdoAdvanced (target arguments = 'advanced')

Any ideas on how to do this?

TIA
