Hi Robert,
Look at this article written in VB:
http://www.vbcodemagician.dk/tips/files_propertiesdialog.htm

You will have to port it to VB.NET, using P/Invoke

Thank you Juan,

is there no .Net Class which handles something like that ?

Unfortunately, not yet, at least by MS. I don´t know if there are
future plans to cover entire Win API or replace it with .NET classes
in future versions of Windows.
May be thrid parties can contribute here.

I´ve found those articles about doing shell programming in C#
