How to Show Standard Windows File Properties Dialog?

Hi,

    My program needs to show the properties associated with a file. I would
like to use the standard windows file properties dialog. Does anybody knows
how to accomplish it?

Regards,

You can use the undocumented SHObjectProperties properties of Shell32
but I don't have a web page for you to look at. I found it last week at
DelphiZine but it no longer appears to be there. Its a little bit
complicated as you have to call it differently between Win9x and NT.
Someone else might be able to help you or if you like I can email you
the example they had (178K).
