[.net] Display game file as folder

Perhaps you should check out the articles section on this page...

I did, well not 'all' of them, and I might have overlooked the one that covers this. Any ideas of where it could have hid itself?

Articles and tutorials -> Programming -> General programming -> Compression algorithms

Look for a topic "Shell Namespace Extensions" in MSDN to get you started.

Actually, Afr0m@n, I don't think that's what he's after. He want's to display the contents of his resource file as if it were a folder in explorer, like how explorer does for .zip files in Windows XP.

Shell namespace extenions aren't that easy at the best of times... but here's an article which shows you how to create one with .NET. It's pretty good, and is almost exactly the sort of thing you're after (well, that's what I gather from reading the abstract)

Thank Dean, thats exactly what I'm looking form. I was just hopign that there were alternatives to shell extensions.

Thanks alot all.

Unfortunately that .NET shell extension article is not recommended. Basically it causes the CLR to be loaded into the shell, which can cause problems if other extensions depend on a specific CLR version.
