Hi all,

Just wondering if there is some VB6 code that can "watch" the system, and if someone tries to print, launches an application? I'm trying to make a kind of print auditing/print controller type application.

The problem with most of the ready-made apps, is that they require a print server to run the controller on, and my printer connects directly to the network. So I'd like to make a stand-alone app that will run on each PC in the network (5 in total, so not many) and logs who prints and adds a total to their balence.

Any code which can make my application run as a service, and maybe respond to a key-combination (similar to key-logger type programs and DeepFreeze) would also be appreciated.

Thanks!
James.
