It is possible to launch the Touchscreen Control Panel directly from a Windows

You may also call the calibration procedure of the Touchscreen Control Panel
directly from your program with the exported function Calibrate-Screen(). It takes
two arguments-your window handle and a timeout value in seconds (0 = no
timeout).
The following code fragment demonstrates how to call this function. For a
complete example, see the included source code, CALIB.C.
WORD Timeout;
HWND hWnd;
// window handle
FARPROC lpfnCalibrateScreen; // pointer to Calibrate function
HANDLE hLibrary; // MONMOUSE.CPL library handle
// Load the Control Panel applet
hLibrary = LoadLibrary("MONMOUSE.CPL");
if (hLibrary < (HANDLE)32) {
MessageBox(NULL, "Could not load Calibration Library.",
"NoLoad", MB_OK);
break;
}
// Get address of CalibrateScreen function
lpfnCalibrateScreen = GetProcAddress(hLibrary, MAKEINTRESOURCE(4));
// timeout in 5 minutes
Timeout = 300;
// Call CalibrateScreen function
(*lpfnCalibrateScreen)(hWnd, Timeout);
FreeLibrary(hLibrary);
