Searching on Google comes up with two possibilies for making an ICA file. One is to use the management tools (which haven't been able to do this for about 6 years) and the other is to open your web interface, right click on one of the apps, and save the target. It'll save as *.ICA, sure; but is about 4 times longer than it needs to be and goes through the web interface, funnily enough.
So, time for Notepad! ICA files are just text files with a different extension, so start a new file in Notepad (or Notepad++ in my case) and copy what is below (which is an example to open Word 2007). Tested as working on Xenapp 5 and Presentation Server 4.0. In this case I'm saving a plain text password, which might not be ideal for you. Hopefully the fields to change will be obvious!

You do all this research, find out how something works and then find Cirtix released a free tool to do the same time 2 years ago. Typical.
But it will not works on XenApp 6, need a bit change:
