Re: Add a context menu item to Windows Explorer (Win98) with VB6?

Okay, it's really not all that complicated. First, what kind of file types
are we talking about? Proprietary format (one you created), exe files,
*any* files?

Also, you will need to have in your program a command line structure that
will accept a command line from the shell to do whatever it is you want to
do with these files, so if you haven't done this yet, it'll pretty much be
necessary.

| Okay, before I start searching the web or delving through my extensive
| library, which could take days, here's what I want to do:
|
| Write a VB6 program. No problem. Program accepts one or more text
| files (may have any extension).
|
| In Windows Explorer I select the files and right click.
|
| The context menu shows a new command (the one I will have added).
|
| I click on the item and the files are processed in some way.
|
| Finished.
|
| --------------------------------
|
| In VB6, has someone done this already? Or similar code that I can
| modify?
|
| (I don't want to reinvent the wheel!)
|
| Thanks!
