    Talking How can I change the ActiveDesktop Wallpaper please?

    I would like to change my desktop wall paper when the ActiveDesktop is enabled, but, I get unsucessful results, because I tried to change it with SISTEMPARAMETERSINFO, a Win95 API function. To do that, I need to know an API function that allow me to change the ActiveDesktop wall paper. Please, somebody should help me please. Thanks. - Alessandro - Pernambuco - Brazil.

    You can only use SYSTEMPARAMETERSINFO to change it to a *.bmp. To use a JPEG, you have to get at the IActiveDesktop Interface, which might be a challenge to do thru VB.

    I have books for sale: "MCSD in a Nutshell" and "VB Distributed Exam Cram" - PM me for details. Will also trade for a decent ATX Pentium 2 MB/CPU/RAM combo.
