Adding to the windows explorer send to list...

Hi,

I have an application that processes files from the users hard disk. The
user is able to select what files they want processed from there hard disk
in windows explorer.

In windows explorer, when you right click on a file you are given the option
to 'send to'. I would like to have an option in this 'send to' menu so that
the user can 'send to' my application.

How can I add an option for my application to the send to menu in explorer ?

If i understood correct, you want to see your application in
explorer's "send to" context menu. If it is, simply copy your
application to:
"C:\Documents and Settings\<account>\SendTo" folder.

Note that "SendTo" is a hidden folder by default, you can reach it
through "start->run" directly or by making it visible by enabling
"show hidden files" in folder properties(view tab).

Thanks,
