#Declaration

Delphi
property RelativePIDL: PItemIDList read;

#Property Value

Type Description
PItemIDList

The pointer to the item identifier list (PIDL) of the root shell item.

#Remarks

Use the RelativePIDL property to obtain the shell item’s relative identifier if you work with the Windows Shell API directly. The identifier is relative to the root shell item defined for a shell control.

You can use the relative identifier to access both virtual and ordinary shell items. Virtual shell items do not correspond to actual folders or files in the file system.
