Arguments not passed to Desktop Shortcut in Deployment Project
===

I put together a deployment project (VS2008) for my project. I want the desktop shortcut to pass two arguments when it is invoked. I've added the values to the **Arguments** property for the shortcut, but when the installer runs the arguments aren't passed.

The desktop shortcut, once created, has a number of the fields disabled

 - the Target field is disabled, and shows the product name instead of the executable path
 - the Open File Location button is disabled
 - the Change Icon button is disabled

Any assistance would be much appreciated.
