BFC_SysParam

Description

This component can be used to retrieve and adjust windows system-parameters. Place the component on the form at designtime and your parameters will be shown. The best way to use it is not to change any properties at design-time. At runtime first use the Refresh-method to get the parameters of the client-PC. next decide if you want to make any future changes permanent. If so set the permanent-property to 'true'. Now you are ready to change all the parameters you want.

Non of these properties work at designtime !!!!
