ShellExecuteEx for windows7

[MKC002]

How to use ShellExecute/ShellExecuteEx for windows7 I want to use it to run my exe as administrator and want to give my own window. Is there any example available SHELLEXECUTEINFO TempInfo = {0}; TempInfo.cbSize = sizeof(SHELLEXECUTEINFO); TempInfo.fMask = 0; TempInfo.hwnd = NULL; TempInfo.lpVerb = _T("runas"); TempInfo.lpFile = "filename"; TempInfo.lpParameters = _T("runasadmin"); TempInfo.lpDirectory = "path"; TempInfo.nShow = SW_NORMAL; BOOL bRet = ::ShellExecuteEx(&TempInfo);

What happens if you assign NULL to the hwnd member of SHELLEXECUTEINFO?

Assign NULL works fine but windows7 gives its default window which ask "An unidentified program want to access your system............" I dont want this message. I want to give my own message. And own message can be given by own window. Thats why i want to know how to do it

So then have you looked to see what value is being assigned to the hwnd member and whether it is a valid window handle?
