QuestionSingle Instances share Data space? Pin

I'm writing a .NET version of Panorama (it changes your backgrounds in win98 but has Issues on XP/Vista -- i dont maintain it... i just like it)
I have to handle It as a single instance application because i call the "ChangeDesktopBackground" command in user32.dll alot -- anywhere from 6 SECONDS to 4 HOURS... and i dont want a user going crazy because the desktop just changed 3935974958607367 times... it takes some doing too...

I was considering DDE, but its dead. OLE automation is near imposible without killing the filesize (its 200kb right now -- and only takes up 400kb in memory.)

I would like to have a command line param, say -a, that adds files to a listbox.

Heres how i have it set up:
FormMain
FormMain.Desks(ListView)
FormMain.AddSingle(Button)
FormMain.AddDirectory(button)
FormMain.RemoveItem(button)
formMain.clearAllItems(button)
FormMain.Timeout(spinCtl)
FormMain.TimoutTimer(Timer)
FormMain......

I want to be able to have it set up so that when the user calls something like
"PanoNet.exe -a C:\Epic Files\Some File.jpg" "C:\Mpre FIles\Some Other FIle.BMP" the new instance tells the old instance to add the two files to the top of the end of FormMain.Desks.Items

Can this be done?

"Pinky, are you thinking what i'm thinking?"
"I Dunno brain, who really came up with the idea for cheeze sticks?"
"... apparently not ..."
