The point is not my structures knowledge (or not only) but particularly my 
manifest ignorance of Windows.
Searching in Googles I found this listing (adapted for my use) :
------
{ HANDLE hToken;
  TOKEN_PRIVILEGES newTp, oldTp;
  unsigned long dwSize = sizeof(TOKEN_PRIVILEGES);
  LUID luid;
  if(!OpenProcessToken(GetCurrentProcess(), TOKEN_ADJUST_PRIVILEGES | 
TOKEN_QUERY,
                &hToken))
  { ShowMessage("Error opening ProcessToken"); return; }
  if(!LookupPrivilegeValue(0, SE_SHUTDOWN_NAME, &luid))
  { ShowMessage("Error reading PrivilegeValue"); return; }
  newTp.PrivilegeCount = 1;
  newTp.Privileges[0].Luid = luid;
  newTp.Privileges[0].Attributes = SE_PRIVILEGE_ENABLED;
  if(!AdjustTokenPrivileges(hToken, false, &newTp, sizeof(TOKEN_PRIVILEGES),
        &oldTp, &dwSize))
  { ShowMessage("Error on AdjustToken - (enabling)"); CloseHandle(hToken); 
return; }
  ExitWindowsEx(EWX_REBOOT, 0);
}
------
Many thanks again for help
