Can anyone show me how to display "File Properties" programmatically (in any language, e.g. C++ or VBScript)? So that, for instance, I can type this at the Command Prompt:

C:\> properties myfile.dll

and have the Properties sheet displayed, as if I had written this:

explorer /select,myfile.dll

and then pressed Alt+Enter

BUT without displaying the Explorer window?

I know it can be done because some utility applications have their own Properties button which brings up the same window as Explorer's Properties window.

Thanks.
