Disabling Ctrl Alt Del checking

[brjames]

I am developing a password protection application and have nearly finished it but, I know its only a simple thing to do but cannot remember how to disable Ctrl Alt Del checking so that the user cannot cancel the program.

Can anyone help me with this?

Thankx in advance!

lucky 4 u i am also working on something similar (maybe i will send my app to u when i am finished
here is the code

put this in general declarations of form

Private Declare Function SystemParametersInfo Lib _
"user32" Alias "SystemParametersInfoA" (ByVal uAction _
As Long, ByVal uParam As Long, ByVal lpvParam As Any, _
ByVal fuWinIni As Long) As Long

paste this sub in the form

Sub DisableCtrlAltDelete(bDisabled As Boolean)
Dim X As Long
X = SystemParametersInfo(97, bDisabled, CStr(1), 0)
End Sub

and in your form load event type the following

Call DisableCtrlAltDelete (true)

that skould disable all windows key combinations includind Windows key , Alt+Tab and Ctrl+Esc.


Just remember to type set it to false when you unload the form or else you cannot use your windows key combinations until you restart.
