Hi Johnny,
              Thank You for the snippet. But this does not answer the
questions i ask.  I already have this doc on solution for the window
clients. What i need is a solution to build the SETUP  EXE or MSI for the
client software on a window machine. I.E what files i need to install and
what registry key to  edit such and such. Also the second problem is that
follow the doc on building the window client there is always a fatal error
and ifoldershell.h never get built. The error is that VS can not find I
foldercomponent.tlb is inculde in the ifoldeshell.h file.   I try to clean
the sloution and rebuild, but the file is still missing. At this point i
can't move forward until i have the shell fully working.
