Mark  -  thanks for these tips but I'm afraid I'm not quite following you.

Should the text file have any text in it? Which folder should I save it in? And finally, how do I set the settings you've outlined from within Livecode? I guess these things are delving into an area of Livecode I've never used.

Thanks,

Ray

Hi Ray,

Make a text file with Notepad. Save it in the folder as Desktop.ini. Use the following settings:

[.ShellClassInfo]
IconFile=Folder.ico
IconIndex=0
InfoTip=Some sensible information.

Does anybody know of a way, from within Livecode, to create a folder and give it it's own custom display on the desktop? I'd imagine this would be done with an .ico file. I'd like to do this for both Mac and Windows.

I've looked through the RunRev store and haven't found any extensions which do this. Maybe through a command-line somebody has written?
