Yes - you can do it via LS and even better by using Policies or profiles (which you use depends on the version you have). It is extremely easy. It can be as easy as pasting a database link (or links) in the document. My best suggestion is that you get a hold of the product manual and do some reading on policies.

My problem is that I want to destroy a shortcut of a Notes base that many users have on their workpace with a button programmed into a message.

Thanks

Apologies - I did not properly understand your question. I have no clue, to be honest. Without knowing much about it, you could always keep the database there, but set the Open event of the database to display your message, and then close the database and transfer the user elsewhere when they hit OK. Sorry - that’s all that comes to mind.

These shortcuts are stored in the file bookmark.nsf. You could write some Lotusscript to delete the documents from this file as required.
