Dear Mr. Alok Gupta, Thank to you and Void Nish, the HOTKEY is Done. I studied services.I want my application to be in "Windows Notification Area" like MSN Massager. Should I study Services or CreateProcess, or something else? Please Note, my application will run on win 9x/2k/XP. Is not good to not know, and is worse to not ask!

I could not find anything about: desktop intercative services in CodeProject. I use the function like: iStat = RegisterHotKey(hwnd,77070,MOD_CONTROL && MOD_ALT, VK_R); But I get 'VK_R' : undeclared identifier error? Will appreciate a sample code.

I would like to develope an application in Win32, once run it should stay running and POPUP, when I press Special Keys i.e. Ctrl+Alt+R. Any help is highly appreciated.
