Programmatically selecting file in explorer

Question

In my application I can programmatically open explorer and select a file using the following code:

void BrowseToFile(LPCTSTR filename)
{
    CString strArgs;

Found the answer to my question. I need to use the shell function SHOpenFolderAndSelectItems. Here is the code for the function if anybody is ever interested:

void BrowseToFile(LPCTSTR filename)
{
    ITEMIDLIST *pidl = ILCreateFromPath(filename);
    if(pidl) {
        SHOpenFolderAndSelectItems(pidl,0,0,0);
        ILFree(pidl);
    }
}
