special keypress event ??

[Inhumanoid]

Is it possible to make a program listen to a special keycombination while it is running in the background. Say something like ctrl+shift+Alt+z will trigger some event while no form has focus...

Thanx for that post...

Public Const MOD_ALT = &H1
Public Const MOD_CONTROL = &H2

How can I add support for SHIFT. Where can I find that

Public Const MOD_SHIFT = &H4
Look at API Text Viewer in MS Visual Studio
6.0 Tools.
Good luck.
