If you want to set the hidden attribute of a directory at the level of the
file system then check the docs for SetFileAttributes():

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...attributes.asp

If you are asking how to hide a folder at the level of the shell, I suggest
you post again in

microsoft.public.platformsdk.shell

if no one responds here.

That's for sure. :-)
