How to get the Icon for a file type?

Hi,

In my application I need to list some files (a little bit like in windows
explorer), and I wan't to show next to each file the right Icon, as used in
windows explorer. how can i find which Icon is used for each file-type, and
use that icon to be shown in my application?

Thanks a lot in advance,

Pieter

Thanks, but I get the impressions when using the Shell it shows only the
32x32 and the 16x16-icons. how can I get the other formats (24x24 and
48x48)?
