Hello,

how is it possible to detect using a hook or another way
to catch a file or document being opened.

I am using in my program dll a shellhook which is catching
and posting the program file names which have been launched.

 if (nCode == HSHELL_WINDOWCREATED)
    {
         char buffer[256] = {0};    // room for extra null terminator

         GetModuleFileName(0, buffer, sizeof(buffer));
......

I am interested to catch the parameter (f.e \windows\notepad.exe
parameter.txt).

If there is any non-hook way to check if a file is now opened I
would be happy to hear about it.

The aim is to monitor a list of files on their opening.

Thanks a lot,

Greg
