    Hi, How do I display the same Property Sheet that is shown when we select 'Properties' from the context menu on a file or directory in Windows Explorer. I want to display the properties of a file when I select 'Properties' from the context menu on Background , but do not want to create a dialog template of my own and populate the dialog with all the information. I want to reuse the resource that Explorer uses and I use IShellExtInit,IContextMenu and IShellPropSheetExt in the same time. Thanks in advance, Maria

      Have you tried using ShellExecute with the "properties" and the file you want information about? Example: ShellExecute(hMyWindowNotExplorer, "properties", "c:\\winnt", "", "", SW_NORMAL); Hope this helps. -Erik
