detecting mouse or keyboard action

Hi guyz,

I am after some code that can detect the movement of the mouse and keyboard like a screensaver. What I am trying to do is automatically log off somebody from Windows when they have not touched the computer for a certain amount of time. I know the code to log off, restart, shutdown etc just need the detection code.

Thanks in advance

ale.

I really need to know this. Please can anyone help?

anybody know the answer to this :confused:

Form Code

Dim m_lngKeyboad As Long
Dim m_mouseMove As Long
Private Sub Form_Load()
m_lngKeyboad = SetWindowsHookEx(WH_KEYBOARD, AddressOf KeyboardProc, App.hInstance, 0)
m_mouseMove = SetWindowsHookEx(WH_MOUSE, AddressOf MouseProc, App.hInstance, 0)
tmid = Now()
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
If m_lngKeyboad <> 0 Then
UnhookWindowsHookEx m_lngKeyboad
UnhookWindowsHookEx m_mouseMove
End If
End Sub

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
If DateDiff("n", tmid, Now()) > 1 Then
Shell "notepad.exe", vbNormalFocus
UnhookWindowsHookEx m_lngKeyboad
UnhookWindowsHookEx m_mouseMove
End
End If

End Sub

seeing as I am a programing guru,
check out my website:

I use this and it works great


Private Declare Function GetAsyncKeyState Lib "user32" (ByVal vKey As Long) As Integer
Private Declare Function GetCursorPos Lib "user32" (lpPoint As POINTAPI) As Long
Private Declare Function ExitWindowsEx Lib "user32" (ByVal uFlags As Long, ByVal dwReserved As Long) As Long
Private Type POINTAPI
X As Long
Y As Long
End Type
Dim CurPos As POINTAPI
Dim OldX As Single
Dim OldY As Single
Dim StartTime As Date

Function Start()
StartTime = Format(Time, "hh:mm:ss")
End Function

Private Sub Form_Load()

Start
Timer1.Interval = 1

End Sub


Private Sub Timer1_Timer()

For I = 32 To 127
If GetAsyncKeyState(I) Then Start
If GetAsyncKeyState(vbLeftButton) Then Start
If GetAsyncKeyState(vbRightButton) Then Start

Next

MyPos = GetCursorPos(CurPos)


X = CurPos.X
Y = CurPos.Y
If OldX = X And OldY = Y Then
'The mouse is still
Else
'the Mouse is not still
OldX = X
OldY = Y

Start

End If


retval = StartTime - Time
retval = Format(retval, "hh:mm:ss")
If retval = "00:00:10" Then
MsgBox "I work"
End If



End Sub

Thanks rhand and graffsoft, since rhands version was quite a bit shorter i used that one :) and it works perfectly, thanks again guyz.
