Attaching Shortcuts to AppointmentItems

Is there an way to put a shortcut to a file into an AppointmentItem? I've
played with dragging and dropping, but it doesn't actually save the shortcut.
The bigger picture is that I want to have an AppointmentItem that has links
to one or more files on a shared drive that related to the AI.

Attaching Shortcuts to AppointmentItems

Here's a VBA sample:

Dim oAppt As Outlook.AppointmentItem
Set oAppt = Application.CreateItem(olAppointmentItem)
oAppt.Body = "file://d:/test.txt"
oAppt.Display
