Hi All, Does any1 know which Win32 API is called when you hit the
Start/ShutDown button on WinXP/2000? Basically I am looking for the API

That is the ShutdownWindows on the Shell application (invoke through COM
interop) in shell32.dll. Easiest way to do this is to add a COM reference
to shell32.dll which shows up in the list of COM references as Microsoft
Shell Controls and Automation. This will auto-generate an interop assembly
for you. Then to display the dialog use the following:
Shell32.ShellClass shell = new Shell32.ShellClass();
shell.ShutdownWindows();
If you want more control over this, look into generating your own interop
assembly.
