In either C++ or from the command line. I need the commands for both XP Home
and XP Pro, which appear to use different dialogs for the set password function. |

The command line version is:

Thank you for the command to set the password. What I am looking for is the
command to actually display the dialog so the user can do it without having to pick the user and then the set password task.
