recieve folder or file name

Question

Hi.
I wrote a program and put it into Windows Context menu but I have a problem.
How I can recieve a folder name (Folder path) or file name (File path) of which I right-click on?
(I mean folder name as a command line parameter, So program does its job according to Folder name).
Thanks :-)
Excuse me for bad English.

Then you should clarify what you mean by  Windows Context menu . How did you do that? Where in the documentation is it described? Perhaps it is a file type association that you created. If so then the file type association specifies what the arguments are. Do you know that command-line arguments are pased from Windows to a program as arguments for the Main function?

I mean for example how winrar understands that what folder should be compressed when I right click on a folder and run winrar?

I am not sure what you are asking. Do you need to know how to get a parameter from a command line or are you asking how to specify a folder to be used as a parameter? If the Windows Context menu is the Start menu and you need to be able to specify a folder to be used as a parameter when executng from that then it is not possible.
