The Create Shortcut Wizard opens.
In the text box, type the following:
rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation

In the Look for icons in this file text box, type:
Shell32.dll.

You could also give it a shortcut keystroke such CTRL +ALT+L. This would save you only one keystroke from the normal command, but it could be more convenient.
