[python-win32] settin wallpaper

[DogWalker]

As the exception says: You must define 'SPI_SETDESKWALLPAPER' .

from win32con import SPI_SETDESKWALLPAPER

-- or--

from win32con import *

-- or --

SPI_SETDESKWALLPAPER = 0x14

-- or --

Use 0x14 or 20 in place of SPI_SETDESKWALLPAPER in the function call

Try this:

    windll.user32.SystemParametersInfoA(.....

You were calling the wrong function. If you just mistyped it in your email,
repost with the pertinent code, including the value you used for
SPI_SETDESKWALLPAPER and pertinent import statements.

the win32 python extentions don't seem to have "SysParametersInfo()" and i
need it to set the wallpaper in windows.

cyptes has a "SysParametersInfoA()" function but wont let me use the
SPI_SETDESKWALLPAPER attribute.

program?
