Explorer Context menu in my ListView (newbie)

[Marcel Hug]

Hi NG !
I'm not shure if i'm in the right NG but I'm desperate because don't finding
help! So i try it here.
I have a little c# - application in which i showns some files in a listview.
Now i would like to get the Windows Explorer Context Menu, if i press the
right mouse button on a file.
I have a code in VB6.0 which uses the IShellFolder and IContextMenu. I'm
trying to transver this in C# but I do not understand what I exactly have to
do.

Could you please help me !
I don't know Shell-Programming so each tip is welcome.

Thanks
Regards

Marcel Hug

Marcel,

If you want to use IContextMenu you will have to use PInvoke to accomplish
this since the shell calls this interface. Fortunately Dino Esposito has a
very good article demonstrating how this can be accomplished. I have posted
the URL for you below.

PS: If you need to find the signature for any shell call a great resource is
to use www.pinvoke.net. Here you can find, edit and add signatures that you
might think will be helpful to someone.

I hope this helps.
