 WIN95 CALL FOR CONTROL PANEL REQUEST

a control panel applet is a .cpl file
they all should be in your c:\windows\system directory

Shell "rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL app.cpl,,0"

the app.cpl,,0 is the only part that needs to be changed
you can ShellExecute a .cpl too. the 0 after the commas is the number of the
tab in the dialog that should be shown. 0 is the first, 1 is the second,
etc.

ex:)
Shell "rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL appwiz.cpl,,0"

to show the Install/Uninstall tab in Add/Remove programs.
