hi folks.

i´m trying to write a snapshot-program that automatically saves snapshots -e.g. from my wintv-application- to a specified dir when a certain key is pressed.
everything is working fine so far but the problem is that my prog is running in the background (of course) when i start the application from where the screenshot is to be taken. so keyboard-events occur at the active application that doesn´t give a **** about them...
is there a possibility to redirect these events from the windows shell to my program?

i´d be very pleased if anyone could help. please mail your replies directly to my email address if possible (mailto:[email protected]).

THANX
