Passing command line argument via Windows Shortcut

Hi,

Does anyone know if there is an easy way to set up a Shortcut
(.lnk) to a program or batch script that will solicit the
user for command line arguments? With the old (16-bit?) PIF
mechanism, a "?" on the "Cmd line:" tells the PIF to open
a dialog to get user inputs. Unfortunately, that no longer
works for the (32-bit?) LNK mechanism.

Thanks for help.
