Hi Don,An alternative might be to add an item to the Send To menu. The process seems to be much the same as in XP, if memory serves:

I would like to add a shell context menu for one of my programs within Windows Explorer. It would be an additional item in the menu. If selected, I would like it to pass the filename to my Windows Forms program.
I guess the first question should be, is it possible to add command line arguments to a Windows Forms application?
Is this possible for mere mortals like myself. Or is this too much to ask? Has this process changed much since XP and Vista? I seemed to remember it being fairly easy in XP to customize these menus by the average user.
