file-preview

[Guest]

hi,
i want to include some sort of preview into my application that works like
the one microsoft uses in regular folders. when i klick a graphic or html
file in a folder i get a little preview in the lower left corner (details...).

does anyone know how this works? i mean what kind of control is used to show
this little picture and is there a way of showing almost all file formats in
the same control?

greetings
lukas
