Excellent Tip!!!
Thanks this is how to create a standby Shortcut, but not how to create the graphic or "Icon" that will represent Standby. I'm looking for an Icon file, dll, icn, exe, etc.
I think a picture of a computer with pause symbol ||, like the pause printer Icon I found at the end of the %SystemRoot%\system32\SHELL32.dll file. :)
You can get the Standby icon at

Unfortunately, the above creates no standby shortcut, but a hibernate shortcut.
