    help with right click shell intergration please

    hello.

    I would appreciate any example code to help me achieve the following please.

    I want to be able to right click on any folder in windows explorer and
    select my program from the context menu

    once the app is running I want text1 to show the folder name from which it
    was opened

    Can anyone please help or send me some example code

    Thanks

    I too would like to know this... would be nice to have something like
    a "where am I?" function on the context menu.

      whirl try this
      put a label on your form (auto size = True)
      in the code where you open the file put

      Label1.Caption = "File opened:" & vbNewLine & FileName

      in the form load put

      Private Sub Form_Load()
      Label1.Caption = "No file loaded:"
      End Sub

      HTH
