Is the delphi example of shell contexts menus no good ?? Demos\ActiveX\Shellext ??
This seems to have many of the registry keys required. There is an example on the
Delphi Super Page, don't remember if it has source - allows you to register OCX & TLB
files from the right click in explorer.

See Delphi Magazine, Issue 15, Nov 96, p 44. (Everybody should get a copy of
their back-catalogue on CD!). I'm afraid it looks rather too complicated to
summarize.
Perhaps a search on the Delphi Super page for "Shell Extension" or "context
menu" might bring up something helpful?
Cheers,

Subject: [DUG]: Putting an application on the explorer shortcut menu
I have an application for entering metadata about data objects into a
central
catalogue. What I would like to be do is deploy so people could select file
or
files in explorer, right-click and up comes my application with file names,
ownership, location, guess at type etc. all filled in. WinZip is only
example
I have of an application that does this. Obviously something to do with
ShellEx registry key. Does anyone know details of how to achieve this,
pointer to articles etc???
