Dllcall - Call the Turn off Computer dialog

[hispeed_mike]

Hi All,

first dll call and I am just strgling to get me head around the conversion from VB to autoit and how to structure the call. I am trying to show the Turn Off Computer Dialog from XP. I cannot use the standard dialog windows uses as it has the shutdown option and we have modified the gina to only allow the restart button and some custom text we have injected.

Here is the VB script:

'System & API - How to Show Shutdown Dialog

Private Declare Function SHShutDownDialog Lib "shell32" Alias "#60" (ByVal YourGuess As Long) As Long

Private Sub Main()

SHShutDownDialog 0

End Sub

How Do I get it into a dllcall for autoit?

I have read the Help and multiple examples but I just don't get it. All help appreciated, thanks in advance.

;Private Declare Function SHShutDownDialog Lib "shell32" _
;Alias "#60" (ByVal lType As Long) As Long


SHShutDownDialog()


Func SHShutDownDialog()
$BOOL = DllCall("shell32.dll","int",60,"int",0)
if @error Then Return 0
Return $BOOL[0]
EndFunc
