Hello everyone
I have One problem:

I would like to write an aplication that:
1. would capture OnLButtonDown message (event) from an external application (mean - NOT my application) running in another window
(for expl. same game in window mode)
2. that captured event (mouse left "Click" in the game) turns on some function in MY application that would start timer
3. after some specified time My application emulate "Keyboard Key Pressed" (eg. "Enter" key) in such a way that the game would think
that a user just hit "Enter" key in game menu. (and than some action would come, eg. start new race in race simulator)

And another one condition MUST be fulfilled:
that all procedre mustn't affect running game (the game must "run" independently from My application)

If someone would be so nice and give me some solution...

AsyncKeyState(VK_LBUTTON)

What are you working on at the moment?

EDIT :
QUOTE
Post the code you have so far using the [code] tags. We can't help you if you don't post your code. We will not do your homework for you. You MUST show some effort.


Please show us what you have so far.

PS : The more I read it, the more it seems you're making an API hack for a game.... lol

I am not sure he is trying to do but I am looking for similar information. The idea is not to hack or something, but just to keep a track of what is happening on my computer when I am not there. smile.gif.

As per the question that might come, "Show me the code"

All I have currently is a form, a box to get started and now I need an eventhandler.
I am not looking for code but for class or functions to do the job.

CHEERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
