control.exe (W2K)

[selice]

Does anyone know the commands, for run system settings in control panel? I know only mouse and I need to know how to run MODEM settings.

For example: "control.exe Mouse"

selice,

I don't understand...I only know mouse.

This command in the Run box will bring up the modem properties:
rundll32.exe shell32.dll Control_RunDLL modem.cpl

reghakr

Just to clarify my last post. When running the commands from the start/run box then just copy from control.exe into the run box ensuring that the start quote is added e.g. to open the system applet

"control.exe" "sysdm.cpl" "Wait+RunOnce"


Cheers

any tnx for the good script.

what is it for "Wait+RunOnce"?
i think no matter there is "wait+runonce" Control panel applet launches......

[Andy-S]

I'm not sure what the "wait + runonce" does. I removed it from the command line text and the applets were still launched with no obvious side effects.

Cheers
Andy
