Hi!

I did a brief search in MSDN and could not find anything in WIndows API. I will search more later - have no time now. I suspect it could be also in the WIndows Shell or in the Windows Scripting Host.

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs

It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
