                        lpEnumFunc, IntPtr lParam);

    private static bool _enumDesktopCallback( string desktop, IntPtr lParam )
    {
        GCHandle gch       = GCHandle.FromIntPtr( lParam );
        IList<string> list = gch.Target as List<string>;

        if ( null == list ) {
        return (false);
        }

        list.Add( desktop );

        return (true);
    }

    int _doEnumDesktops()
    {
        IList<string> list       = new List<string>();
        GCHandle gch         = GCHandle.Alloc( list );
        EnumDesktopsDelegate childProc = _enumDesktopCallback;

        if (!EnumDesktops(IntPtr.Zero, childProc, GCHandle.ToIntPtr( gch ) ))
        {
        int e = Marshal.GetLastWin32Error();
        WriteLine( "EnumWindowStations errno={0}",  e );
