Refreshing the desktop wallpaper...

 Refreshing the desktop wallpaper...

I have written a program that changes the path and filename of the
desktop wallpaper in WIN.INI.

How do I get Windows 95 to display the new wallpaper as soon as the
program chance the WIN.INI file?  

For reference:  I am using VB4 Ent.

Thanks,

Tom

Check SendMessage, specifying WM_WININICHANGE, or WM_SETTINGCHANGE for W95
and NT4 as the message being sent, and HWND_BROADCAST (-1) as the window
handle.
