Default Shortcut to call a specific person

Since I've freed up my PTT button (long press) I figured I'd put it to better use - long press will now dial my wife.
To do this just i move the attached file to your phone then create a shortcut of it. Modify the shortcut so the text is (leave the quotes in):
28#"\windows\makephonecall.exe" 5555555555
then rename the shortcut to long_ptt.lnk if you want it to be a long ptt press.
NOTE: I learned the hard way that the makephonecall.exe file CANNOT be in the Windows directory or it will rename the lnk to makephonecall every time. If you move it to your MyDocs directory though you can make the shortcut, move the shortcut and it works. My text now reads:
33#"\My Documents\MakePhoneCall.exe" 5555555555
Attached Files
File Type: zip MakePhoneCall.zip (2.4 KB, 14 views)
