    If you know C++ make the dll with the hook procedure yourself or else ask someone to make one for you.

    Is there anywhere on the net I can find C++ examples of making hooks? I can make one in C++, but needs help with it.

    Download the file attached. It is code from Aaron Young using the SetWindowsHookEx and RegisterHotKey API functions.

    Mathew, thanks for the reply, I havn't had a chance to try this out yet. But can you tell me if this would work in the situation I've mentioned? e.g. when a game is running in full screen mode.
