if click the ok button Change password dialog will appear...

So i need the below...

1.how can i display my own password expiry warning dialog box in windows log on?

2.how can i display my C# change password dialog box?

3.C# change password dialog box shouldn't work at log in time means,please give visual c++ active directory change password code...

I Got some information:

System registry has stored the password expiry warning value in  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\passwordexpirywarning...

I think,each time Active directory compare to that key value,then only

invoke and display  the password expiry warning dialog box...

5.how to compare and then invoke that dialogbox using visual c++ or C#..

Thanks in advance

you are programming with C#, right?

if so, you should move to visual C# forum.

Hi Sanju,

According to my research, I found you have already posted a thread similar with one in Visual C++ Language forum. I'd like to merge them to keep in the same topic.

Thanks for your understanding and active participation in the MSDN Forum.
Best regards,
