I am trying to find the registry setting that will force my JPEG backgroup
to be in "strech" mode

I am not using AD so can't do it by that.

Any idea

Thanks

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\
"WallpaperStyle"=
(REG_SZ)
0=Centered
2=Stretched

"TileWalpaer"=
(REG_SZ) Boolean

If I recall correctly. And for non-ActiveDesktops. May be different
for Active Desktop. If "AD" in you post meant Active Desktop (and not
Active Directory) then you are limited to BMP files IIRC. No JPGs.

Changing the value in the registry very likely will not be effective
until logoff/logon or re-accessing the GUI dialog and "OK".
