It would help if you would provide more details about what exactly you want
to use the new desktop for.  But in general, it is something along the
following basics (need more details to provide deeper examples):

    DWORD dwDesiredAccess = (DESKTOP_CREATEMENU | DESKTOP_CREATEWINDOW |
DESKTOP_ENUMERATE | DESKTOP_SWITCHDESKTOP);

    HDESK hDesktop = CreateDesktop("MyDesktop", NULL, NULL, 0,
dwDesiredAccess, NULL);
    HDESK hPrevious = OpenInputDesktop(0, FALSE, DESKTOP_SWITCHDESKTOP);
    ...
    SwitchDesktop(hDesktop);
    // use desktop as needed
    ...
    SwitchDesktop(hPrevious);
    CloseDesktop(hPrevious);
    CloseDesktop(hDesktop);
