Hey, I found the ExitWindowsEx i the AllAPI Guide and thought it was pretty cool, but I can't get it to run because it says that it wants ExitWindowsEx to be a variabel.

Here's the code:

'In general section
Const EWX_LOGOFF = 0
Const EWX_SHUTDOWN = 1
Const EWX_REBOOT = 2
Const EWX_FORCE = 4
Private Declare Function ExitWindowsEx Lib "user32" (ByVal uFlags As Long, ByVal dwReserved As Long) As Long
Private Sub Form_Load()
'KPD-Team 1998
'URL: http://www.allapi.net/
'E-Mail: KPDTeam@Allapi.net
msg = MsgBox("This program is going to reboot your computer. Press OK to continue or Cancel to stop.", vbCritical + vbOKCancel + 256, App.Title)
If msg = vbCancel Then End
'reboot the computer
'Problem is in this line I think
ret& = ExitWindowsEx(EWX_FORCE Or EWX_REBOOT, 0)
End Sub

-----

I think it says that, because there is () after ExitWindows, but it says so in the guide example.
Thanks for your help.

Do you know the right declaration then?

You wrote the exact same declaration as in the example!

The error message marks the text: ExitWinsdowsEx and says this:
Compile Error:
Sub or Function not defined
