Windows Explorer interface using Windows Shell

Create button and panes in Windows Explorer (windows XP, 7 and 8).\r\n\r\nThe idea is to do a sample project, which we can use with our controls and work with windows explorer api events. The button must be placed near the detail pane button (the button that opens the preview pane in windows explorer).The pane must be able to hold a custom Vb.net control. Pressing the button shows/hides the pane (similar to the Tasks/calendar pane on the right in microsoft outlook).\r\n\r\nNeed the ability to resize pane (see image). Ideal feature would be to auto-hide (similar to unpined visual studio panes which open when mouse hovers over a certain area)\r\nSee attached image to illustrate the idea better.\r\n\r\nUnless you have worked with windows shell and done this kind of work before, please do not place a bid!
