Nurgler 0 Posted August 1, 2006 Hi, I have tried to run the sounds control from the control panel with a shortcut and the run command but it didn't work. So I have the Question: How to start a control panel feature? For Example the Sound controls. Is there a special commend or a trick? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eynstyne 1 Posted August 1, 2006 Did you try CONTROL.EXE? Run(@windowsdir & "\control.exe mmsys.cpl") You could always just make a batch file... @echo off control.exe mmsys.cpl I'm not sure, but if you add the ",," after mmsys.cpl it will jump to a particular tab.
