CString path ("\\Windows\\ctlpnl.exe");
SHELLEXECUTEINFO si;

memset(&si,0,sizeof(si));
si.cbSize = sizeof(si);
si.fMask = SEE_MASK_NOCLOSEPROCESS;
si.hwnd = NULL;
si.lpVerb = _T("open");
si.lpParameters = _T("cplmain.cpl,3");
si.lpDirectory = NULL;
si.nShow = SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED;
si.hInstApp = NULL;
si.lpFile = LPCTSTR(path);

ShellExecuteEx( &si );

Some devices override the standard property pages with a custom one in a
separate dll or perhaps an exe. You need to check the registry to see if an
alternative is registered and if so call ctlpnl.exe with the dll as an
argument. Check HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Power
And look for a value named "Redirect".

Peter, I have already did that, but I get the same result... nothing...
others window from the control panel open normally wen I pass another
parameter. The only than I can´t open is just that I need....
