Title: Show Windows properties window
Question: Show Windows properties window!
Answer:
This function uses Shell API
The function:
function VisaEgenskaper(hWndOwner: HWND; const FileName: string): Boolean;
var Info: TShellExecuteInfo;
begin
{ Fill in the SHELLEXECUTEINFO structure }
with Info do
begin
cbSize := SizeOf(Info);
fMask := SEE_MASK_NOCLOSEPROCESS or
SEE_MASK_INVOKEIDLIST or
SEE_MASK_FLAG_NO_UI;
wnd := hWndOwner;
lpVerb := 'properties';
lpFile := pChar(FileName);
lpParameters := nil;
lpDirectory := nil;
nShow := 0;
hInstApp := 0;
lpIDList := nil;
end;
{ Call Windows to display the properties dialog. }
Result := ShellExecuteEx(@Info);
end;
Call the function with this line:
VisaEgenskaper(Application.Handle, 'C:\Thomas.txt');
