SHChangeNotify(SHCNE_ASSOCCHANGED, SHCNF_IDLIST, nil, nil) ;

Not sure what BCB is, couldn't find anything useful.

When I googled SHChangeNotify I found this:

http://btmtz.mvps.org/shnotify/

Enter the undocumented API functions SHChangeNotifyRegister and SHChangeNotifyDeregister. This demo shows how an application can use these functions to register itself with the shell, allowing the application to be notified of any specified changes that were made in any specified part of the namespace, from the desktop folder on down. The demo also provides a rather interesting study of what is actually happening in the namespace as well...

Seeing as this is the Borland Delphi forum, you'll probably get a better answer in the Borland C++ Builder (BCB) forum: forum101.
