So how do you properly get to the Desktop list
I tried this but it is incorrect

void __fastcall TForm1::Button1Click(TObject *Sender)
{
  HWND DeskTop;
  DeskTop = GetDesktopWindow();
  int icons;

//Wrong!  This was supposed to return the number of items in the list.
icons =  ImageList_GetImageCount(HWND DeskTop);

}
