Antialising Access within Game

Hello, is there a way to change the amount of antialiasing in a program that is to be done without going through through the "display properties" and changing the, in nVidia's case, slider for antialiasing? For example: I can go to my "display properties", "Advanced dialog box", nVidia specific graphics card tab, "Performance and Quality Settings" tree member, and change the slider position for antialiasing. I am utilizing C++ with the Win32 and Opengl API if that is of any help. Thank you.

Can't you specify the amount of anti-aliasing in OpenGL itself? I know I can define the amount of AA I want in DirectX, except it's called MultiSampling over there. Try to look into multi-sampling in the opengl docs.

Edit: I asked Uncle Google, and it told me this:

Thank you for the reply.

I have already found those ways, thanks to NeHe, but I was wondering about what the Antialiasing section under the control panel does. If it justs simulates those that are mentioned in the link then I guess I have already achieved what I was asking about.
