how to Create a File System Virtual Folder

Hi,
I would like to create a file system virtual directory which should be
accessible by Explorer and by application from the standard path
(ex. c:\virtual_directory).
I would like to be able to mount and un-mount that directory and
populate in some manner.
How can I do this?
Thanks is advance, sid.

Hi §iD`,

Assuming you're talking about creating a shell plugin, such as a Bluetooth
folder, I think you need to investigate shell programming. There was a good
article on the MSDN website a few months back about how to do exactly this,
but it's by no means a simple task. There is a richly detailed example
project available for download relating to that MSDN article which should
get you started, or alternatively check out www.gotdotnet.com as I'm sure
it's on there somewhere.

Regards,
Alex Clark
