Hello

I am not sure if this is the right group to send my question to because I am
new at this groups, so I am sorry if I was mistaken.

I want to have my application notified with every application the users run
on their pc and have the path of its .exe file captured too, as my
application will be running as long as the windows is running "I do not want
to terminate these applications"
Through my search I found that I will have to make a windows "system wide
Hook" in a DLL using the SetWindowsHookEx() , UnhookWindowsHookEx(),
CallNextHookEx(), and employ a WH_CBT, which provide the appropriate hook
for my situation.
my problem comes with the Hook procedure which I do not know how to
manipulate, I don't know how send the appropriate message that will contain
these desired info. for my applications, I don't know what parameters should
I pass to the SendMessage() api, and what should I receive from it ??

thanks
Stan
