>>>Where do you typically go to to find this stuff??

>>Why, the MSDN, of course! If you do a search on "control.exe" (with quotes), it's the first thing that comes up.

>>But, how would one know that control.exe is the control panel app in the first place, and therefore know where to look in the MSDN? Err, I don't know, it's just something I picked up along the way. Lots of time spent reading PC Mag and the like, I guess.
