Shell Namespace Extensions again

Hi!
Several days ago I've posted a question how to implement IExtractIcon
interface into my SNE. I got no response so I'm writing again, if any of you
has any samples or guidlines of how to implement IExtractIcon and maybe even
IContextMenu interfaces into my SNE. The thing I'm doing has nothing to do
with files. I've created some COM objects which provide me with information
from SQL Server 7.0 database in a hierarchical way and now I would like to
show those items in the left pane (TreeView) of Windows explorer. I would
also like to decorate my items with icons and context-menu handlers. I would
also like to know if there are any functions that would bring out the
default window for showing folder contents in a ViewWindow (like when you
click on my computer you get this ListView with LargeIcons displayed) or
must I create my own view window with those capabilities?

TIA

regards

Don't know if this helps: I have a sample implementation of IContentMenu in
the QuickReg utility source code downloadable from my site. Its written in
C++ though.

have fun
