Can you load compiled code from an icon?

Currently when I use the Matlab compiler to make a stand-alone application I have to run the command prompt and type in the function's .exe name in order to run the program. Does anyone know of a way to simplify that, like creating a shortcut or desktop icon that I can click to do the same thing?

Yes that should be possible; simply create a new shortcut, on for example your desktop, by:

1. Right-clicking on your desktop and choosing "New" -> "Shortcut" then as target select your MATLAB Compiler Standalone EXE-file.

2. Or, in Windows Explorer drag the MATLAB Compiler Standalone EXE-file to your desktop while holding the ALT-button. This should create a shortcut to the application.

So it is. It just takes a little while to load the .exe after it opens the command window. Thanks for the help.
