>BTW, Do you havce the book Undocumented WIndows (Matt Pietrak, et.al.)? >>No…why do you ask? I was/am having a major problem implementing there FileCdr code in a visual C++ Large model. It's interesting code that will permit yopu to recieve the messages intended for filemanager whenever a user makes any change to the file system. The problem of implementing their book examples is two fold: a) It doesn't take into account Large Model programming b) In their attempt to create simpler code by "hiding" general windows code (they have a special header & lib), they've missed the fact that most professional organizations won't allow for this aggressive coding technique – therefore, some of the necessary code is wrapped in a box which is wrapped in a layer wtc… By the time I'm finished unwarpping the cod – I'm scrambling near pointers to long etc..
