I want a user to be able to right click on a file, of select a number of files by highlighting them. I then want them to be able to right click on the selected files and SEND TO (Copy them to a destination)
Any ideas? I can't get my head around it. I keep coming up againts the command line parameters for vds as max 9 so i can only copy 9 files?

Well, there is the function @Cmdline(). It gets everything from the command line. If you can find a way to seperate the files into a list, that should work.

Instead of using:
| Code: | | shell open,my.exe,file1,file2,file3,etc |
use somthing like:
| Code: | | shell open,my.exe,file1|file2|file3|etc |
and then parse the input.

ShellExecuteAPI has lot more functionality than VDS "shell" I don't know if it helps your particular case.

That won't work in this case, as the executable is opened by Explorer and Explorer is always
separating the files with spaces. It seems like @CMDLINE() will probably work excellently
for this purpose though.
I think it would be much better though if the SHIFT limit of 9 parameters would be
removed though. |
