I am sorry to come up with the same question over and over again, but I am 
really curious about this communication between the FileManger and the 
ProgramManager.

As far as I found out yet, there is a undocumented window-message among the 
WM_MDI*-messages. The value of the message is 0x22b and it is send to the 
application when you drag an icon from the FileManager to the client-area of 
the app.

wParam is set to 0 or 1, the LOWORD of the lParam is always 0 and the HIWORD 
contains a value between 2000 and 5000 (dec).

Problem is: The messages are sent and not posted, so the spy does not tell to 
much!

Anybody got an idea how this thing works?
