Hi, I am working on a project where I am required to create a Desktop Database.

I have more then 100 files of the same type for which I would like to display the custom icon. I would like to know whether it is possible to display the the custom icon for a file by putting the relevant information in the Desktop Database. How can I set the creator, type, kind and icon data for the custom icon files by writing into the DTDB. Is there a flag called "hasDTDB" present and is it system defined. If so, where and how do we set it?

I am coding in the "Windows platform" so I would not be able to user Mac routines. I am using a Mac to test whether my files are displaying the proper icons later.

I would be thankful for any inputs in this regard.

Thank you, Entwicklung.
