GlobalHook

17:11
That's cool for you... but I still don't have it working... :o(
I have stripped down your code, Jim, and put some of mine in it. Below is
what's left. What's wrong? The SetWindowsHookEx is being called but it
returns 0! I give it exactly the same arguments as you do in your code!

Thanks, Jeroen

PS sorry for the long posting, but since it's non working code, I thought
not to post it in attachments.
