>>run /n rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL desk.cpl,@0,2
David,
Really don't remember the source but it was like this :
Start Control Panel Applets:
See article Q135068 of the Microsoft knowledgebase for the whys, but use this command to run these control panel applets (this might also work for running other things also):
run /n rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL desk.cpl,@0,2
(brings up windows color sheme)
(do not put spaces after any of the commas or you will get the Error in shell32.dll message)
The 3 most significant parameters that allow you freedom here is desk.cpl, the @0, and the ending digit 2. The cpl file is what you change to get another applet run. If a cpl file has multiple applets in it, then use @1 to get to the zero based second applet. The last digit indicates the page of the property sheet of the applet that will be open when the applet runs (zero based). Which applets have I found so far?
