To make sure,

I want to write a program:
In Windows Explorer, after drag&drop a file to
a pre-defined drive letter (for example F:) the file
should be sent through the COM port to an
external device(digital satellite receiver).

Do I have to write a device driver or
writing a shell namespace extension will do the job?
Is it possible to write a device driver with BCB, VC++
or do I have to use the MS DDK.
Thanks...
