Running CPL applets C++

Comment:
I'm making an app that runs a control panel applet, the code i used to use to do this was somethin like this: WinExec(rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL appwiz.cpl But this doesn't work in XP, so i've tried to use the ShellExecute function but this doesn't seem to do anythin. Any suggestions on how i can run a CPL file using C++ MFC.

Jeff: does it compile or just not run correctly? I'll take a look at it, however if you can get it to work from the run prompt then it should work. I'll give it a try.

Jeff: if you try running appwiz.cpl in the run prompt alone, it works. Try: system("appwiz.cpl"); or if you like WinExec you could try running it from that as if it was a program.
