It isn't, you need to use P/Invoke; kyle posted to the wrong forum ;P
[DllImport("user32.dll")] public external static bool ExitWindowsEx(uint uFlags, int dwReason);Search through the Vc7\PlatformSDK\Include directory to get the constants needed for the paramters. James Simplicity Rules! -

I did think I was in the C++ forum when I posted. Please accept my apology. Your answer was excellent and it made me question, is there a way to restart the computer using C# managed code? Kyle

It is very doable from WMI API wrapped in the .NET System.Managment namespace. You can reboot/shutdown the local or any other machine on the domain. Depending on the privileges you or your admin have set, your mileage will vary. Regards

using System.Management;
.
.
.
ManagementObjectSearcher searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher("SELECT * FROM Win32_OperatingSystem WHERE Primary = TRUE");
ManagementBaseObject inParams;
ManagementBaseObject outParams;
bool temp;foreach (ManagementObject os in searcher.Get())
{
temp = os.Scope.Options.EnablePrivileges;
os.Scope.Options.EnablePrivileges = true;
inParams = os.GetMethodParameters("Reboot");
outParams = os.InvokeMethod("Reboot", inParams, null);
os.Scope.Options.EnablePrivileges = temp;
}You can also specify Shutdown for the method...
