Winfrotz will accept a parameter list with the first parameter being the path to the .dat file that you want to process. Therefore if you create a shortcut to Winfrotz and modify the "target" value (through properties) to something such as ...

"C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\WinFrotz\WinFrotz.e xe" "C:\StatFall\stationf.dat" (leave space before parameter.)

then when you double click the shortcut it will start Stationfall automatically. You can then rename the shortcut to Stationfall if you desire.

EDIT: There should not be a space in the .exe part of the program path. I can't get it to go away.
