Is there anyway to determine the location of a volume's icon on the desktop?


OR

Is there someway to have the finder open a folder remotely?  For example
given a path VOLUME:Utilites: can you have the finder open the appropriate
window for the folder Utilities.  By remotely I mean from within another
application such as a find file utility.

The answers to both of these questions is probably no.  But will system 7.0
allow the later of the two through AppleEvents or something similiar.  I know
System 7.0's find file facility will open the appropriate window when it
locates a file but will this functionality be made available to other programs.

Thanks in Advance.
