    Here is a link to the entire article. However, if you are using Windows 9x or NT, you'll need to employ a system-wide hook. See this article for details.

        This is what MSDN says: Requirements Windows NT/2000: Requires Windows NT 3.1 or later. Windows 95/98: Requires Windows 95 or later. Header: Declared in Winuser.h; include Windows.h. Library: Use user32.lib. And what do you mean by not working properly? Can u give details on the improper working? ...Avenger


        Remember... testing & debugging are always part of programming ...so exterminate those stinking bugs

          Please provide a code snippet of how you are using the function.

              I am using Windows 2000 here is the snippet #include "stdafx.h" int APIENTRY WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow) { LASTINPUTINFO plii; memset(&plii,0,sizeof(plii)); plii.cbSize = size(plii); if(GetLastInputInfo(&plii )) { //code here } return 0; } Even if I declare the LASTINPUTINFO structure in the header file its not working Sandy

                Well, since what you have is not a true Windows application (e.g., you need a window and a message pump), I'm not sure how GetLastInputInfo() is supposed to behave. I may be incorrect, but it wouldn't hurt to at least provide the minimum.

                  Even if I provide a window and check the messages it gives a error saying "Undefined Identifier for "GetLastInputInfo() Jack

                    Is this a compiler, linker, or run-time error?

                            Have you defined _WIN32_WINNT? If not, look at line #5040 of winuser.h.
