ShutDown, Hibernate, Standby Code

**alti** · 08-10-2005, 02:34 PM

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction with this, I have nearly completed an app and I cant for the life of me find the answer to this question.

I want to have the ability to shutdown, restart, hibernate, standby from my app as is done in Frodo, cf, rr, ect.

I know shutdown.exe can handle shutdown and restart but not standby and hibernate.

What i am coding is in vb but any examples in other languages are fine.

Thanks,

Brian

In VB use this command to invoke hibernation:

Shell "rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState"
