How to create a desktop shortcut from a batch file

Question

I know there are many posts on this issue but there is a minor twist to what I need to do.

I can figure out how to create a shortcut with an argument like this:
"C:\Program Files\My App\App.exe" /s

But I need to apply the path of a file wrapped in "" as argument like this:
"C:\Program Files\My App\App.exe" "c:\Data\File.ext"
Note the double quotes.

I can't find any VBscript examples illustrating this behaviour.
This is what I've based my current script on.

@echo off

set SCRIPT="%TEMP%\%RANDOM%-%RANDOM%-%RANDOM%-%RANDOM%.vbs"

echo Set oWS = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") >> %SCRIPT%
echo sLinkFile = "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\myshortcut.lnk" >> %SCRIPT%
echo Set oLink = oWS.CreateShortcut(sLinkFile) >> %SCRIPT%
echo oLink.TargetPath = "D:\myfile.extension" >> %SCRIPT%
echo oLink.Save >> %SCRIPT%

cscript /nologo %SCRIPT%
del %SCRIPT%

Solution

The soultion was the triple quotes:

For some reason the

echo oLink.arguments = Chr(34) & "c:\Data\File 1.ext" & Chr(34)

Makes the File 1.ext open.

@techie007 - I am aware. I am calling a temporary VBScript from within the batch file. Something like this superuser.com/a/455383/257686

@MortenKahr Usually I use Chr(34) instead of double quotes for the outer pair as shown on stackoverflow

@nixda So echo oLink.arguments = Chr(34) c:\Data\File 1.ext Chr(34) ?

[nixda]

@MortenKahr echo oLink.arguments = Chr(34) & "c:\Data\File 1.ext" & Chr(34)

Adjusted my answer (after testing).

@nixda (techie007) I'll try both in the morning. Thanks a lot
