I would suggest a Shell Namespace Extension. It doesn't even need a drive letter assigned to it, it can be a virtual device that is listed directly underneath the top-level Desktop without any file sytem attached to it. Device Drivers are very low-level programming. A Shell Namespace Extension can be programmed in BCB just fine. Gambit
