Using TShellListView to open files
Hi,
I am writing a simple text editor that has the open source component, synedit and a ShellListView for a file explorer. I have the code
synEditor.Lines.LoadFromFi le(ShellLi stView.Sel ectedFolde r.PathName );
to open the file and this displays the file in my synedit component but it also performs the default open in windows. eg if i double click a pas file through the ShellListView component it opens the pas in delphi and in the text editor i wrote.
Is there a way that I can stop this from opening the file via explorer. Alternatively if there isnt a way is there a component that will let me have a file explorer to open files in my editor. I would prefer to keep using the ShellListView however.
Thanks
