Retain Desktop Icon after application is uninstalled

Can anyone tell me how I can retain an applications desktop icon after
the the application is uninstalled? How can I do this via Orca or the
VS setup project.

Thanks!!

If the shortcut is in it's own component then you can just mark that component as permanent. I'm
not sure what to do if it's in the same component as its target.
