Where does the WorkPlace Shell store icon positions? Are there
WPS calls to manipulate this value?

I think in the OS2.INI or in the OS2SYS.INI file?

I should have answered this when you first asked. Sorry.
The WPS stores icon positions in an extended attribute of the
containing folder -- either a file system folder (i.e. directory) or abstract folder (also a directory, but managed slightly
differently). The name of the extended attribute is, unsurprisingly, .ICONPOS and its format is _undocumented_ in the OS/2 DTK.
Sorry for the lengthy delay in replying. Technical problems with the
feed which lasted in excess of two weeks, followed by a very busy
personal life. [:)
So you think it's the .INI files, eh? Hmph. I'm a little surprised,
but I guess it makes sense from a point of view.

To set a position you must be an wpFolderObject and override the wpSetNextIconPos().
