xp commands and programs

[Guest]

Is there a list available of commands and programs available within XP. I
need the full path names, as I want to execute some of these commands within
an application. In particular, I am trying to find the Windows Picture and
Fax Viewer program right now.

In particular, I am trying to find the Windows
Picture and Fax Viewer program right now.

This is a built-in function of "shimgvw.dll". Run
rundll32.exe %windir%\system32\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscreen %1
(replace "%1" with path\filename.xyz).

There's a good list of commands here

Start > Run > %systemroot%\hh.exe
Ms-its:%systemroot%\help\ntcmds.chm::/ntcmds.htm

Here's a good start.

Open a command prompt, type: help and hit Enter.

Command-line reference

Start | Run | Copy and paste the following line:

hh ntcmds.chm

Click OK.

Command-line reference A-Z

Start | Run | Copy and paste the following line:

hh ntcmds.chm::/ntcmds.htm

Click OK.

I have a shortcut to
%windir%\hh.exe ms-its:c:\Windows\Help\ntcmds.chm::/ntcmds.htm
on my Start Menu.

Hope this helps. Let us know.

Is there any documentation available anywhere of other such programs?

That's a pretty generic question, so the answer would have to be "yes".

 

[Guest]

to be more specific, is there any documentation describing which standard
microsoft dll's can be used with rundll32.exe and what the syntax is to do so?

Thanks

I'd already found that article, but I'd hoped that there was a list of
standard microsoft DLL's that could be used with this program.

Another response this query showed me how to use the image viewer, and I
wondered how he got that info.
