Anonymous Anonymous Unregistered	Is is possible to force a user to change password via kix. (My XP machines don't get notified of password expiry in a NT4 domain.) Using this doesn't work...(CTRL-ALT-DEL - then Alt C for change password) sendkeys("^(~({DEL}))") sendkeys("~(C)") any ideas? [ 28. January 2003, 16:17: Message edited by: pber ]

Anonymous Anonymous Unregistered	Is there no way of bringing up the default change password dialog? That's what I was trying to do with the CTRL-ALT-DEL then ALT-C... or even better some DLL call like: Shell "rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation" Anyhow, I'll see if I can implement the code you gave me. Thanks.

Bryce Bryce KiX Supporter Registered: 2000-02-29 Posts: 3167 Loc: Houston TX	the short answer is no, you can't bring up the change password box all that easy.... the long answer is... you can recreate your own change password type dialog box. 1. you could use kixforms.dll while this would be the best looking, you will run into problems with having to get the dll installed on all of the computers. 2. you can use IE to do this as well.... hold on... i got some IE code......... here is just a simple UDF that will prompt for a password, not change it mind you...

The cheap and dirty way is: Shell 'control nusrmgr.cpl' The more elegant way is with RunDLL32.exe as follows: Shell 'Rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL nusrmgr.cpl' With RunDll32, there are additional paramenters that can be passed. STFW for syntax and examples. Here's one example: http://www.thescarms.com/VBasic/rundll.asp _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more.
