    Hey all, I'm kind of lost here, I want to listen to a file-creation event in my computer. Not that simple I know but according to the few documents on the web I understand there is an API function (ShellNotifyRegister) that suppose to solve my problem (you can check: http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/4942/notify.html to learn about it) Anyway, I have the known error: unresolved external symbol "void * __stdcall SHChangeNotifyRegister..." in the linking phase.. Does anyone know how to solve it..? Thanks. RoyRose78

      See the FAQ 2.3 I'm trying to call a Windows API, but the linker gives an unresolved external error (LNK2001) on the API name. Why?[^] --Mike-- Visual C++ MVP :cool: LINKS~! Ericahist | 1ClickPicGrabber | CP SearchBar v2.0.2 | C++ Forum FAQ Strange things are afoot at the U+004B U+20DD

        You might also want to check out ReadDirectoryChangesW() and FindFirstChangeNotification().
