I don't think the there's any type in the FCL that allows you to do it
directly, you'll have to "PInvoke" and call the SystemParametersInfo Win32
API call passing SPI_SETDESKWALLPAPER as the accessibility parameter. You
can also use the SPI_SETSCREENSAVEACTIVE accessibility parameter for the
same function to manipulate screensavers.
HTH, Metallikanz!
