Looking for programmatic Bluetooth discovery/pairing using XP SP2

The bluetooth stack that comes with XP SP2 has a couple of nice wizard
interfaces for device discovery and pairing. I am looking to create my
own wizards to do similar tasks and wanted to interface
programmatically with the stack.

I also found the Bluetooth API in the MSDN platform SDK. However,
there isn't any example code, and my C/C++ skills are not that strong.

I was hoping to create a C# class to interface with this stack in just
the areas of discovery and pairing. Any ideas? Heck, I'd take any
examples in C or C++ in this area.

PS. Even if I could call the existing SP2 bluetooth devices wizard
would be nice. Any ideas on how to do that?

Thanks in advance!
