Is there a way to create a program that will access the Control Panel or the display settings?

Thanks

no but you can programatically show the control panel dialogs from vb



Dim RetVal
'internet options dialog...
RetVal = Shell("rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL Inetcpl.cpl", vbNormalFocus)

'display setting dialog...
RetVal = Shell("rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL desk.cpl,,3", 1)
