Try this:


strMessage = "Please unplug your network cable, turn off your monitor, and click OK to continue.";
Dialog.Message("Instructions",strMessage);


;) just kidding.

There is no way to do those things that are built into AMS. However, if you find a DLL or executable that does them you can call them from AMS.

1. Download NirCmd is a small command-line utility
http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/nircmd.html

2. install this in windows dir (just one file)
OR (use it with your project to copy the file to windows folder)

File.Copy("AutoPlay\\Docs\\nircmd.exe", "C:\\windows\\", true, true, false, true, nil);

3. create batch file for each command eg..
@echo off
nircmd.exe monitor off

4. use the batch file to each button click
result = File.Run("AutoPlay\\Docs\\Monitor_Off.bat", "", "", -1 , true);

Maybe there is other easier way but I only know this way, sorry if i m wrong.

If there is any other way I m interested to know too.
:rolleyes
