Hi all!

I try to catch the keyboard input. I found InstallKeyHook(), which I think is the solution for my problem. But no demo code, how to use it.

I hope, you have some lines of code or a link to some example.

And is it possible to catch "Alt-F4" or "Alt-Tab" (or the Linux equivalents) too, to protect the application to be deaktivated? Or is this some levels deeper in os and will never reach the application?

I only want an application window, which stays on top and no possibility to leave it, except "my" way. Its an touch screen application, if someone wants to know, why I want to do things like that Wink

Thanks in advance,

WebChaot.

Hello,
You need to override the Key method. Look at this post
