Why are you looping?  You should not be doing that.

Why are you retrieving the file mapping every time the hook is called?  You
should be retrieving it only once, when the DLL is first loaded.

You are speciying 0 for cbData when you should be specifying
NameVal.Length() instead.  By setting it to 0, WM_COPYDATA wo't be able to
actually copy any data - you told it there isn't any data to copy.

BTW, you should give dwData a more unique value.  You shouldn't hard-code
it, unless you can 100% guarantee that it will always be unique.  10000 is
not likely to always be unique.  Something more like this will be, though:

    cds.dwData = 0x4D696B65; // "Mike" in hex

Now, with all of that said, try this code instead:


    HANDLE hFileMapHandle = NULL;
    tagMemoryFileDefinition *MyMemoryFile = NULL;

    BOOL WINAPI DllEntryPoint(HINSTANCE hinstDLL, DWORD fdwReason, LPVOID
lpvReserved)
    {
        switch( fdwReason )
        {
            case DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH:
            {
                hFileMapHandle = OpenFileMap();
                if( !hFileMapHandle )
                    return FALSE;

                MyMemoryFile = static_cast<tagMemoryFileDefinition*>(
MapFile(hFileMapHandle) );
                if( !MyMemoryFile )
                {
                    CloseHandle(hFileMapHandle);
                    return FALSE;
                }

                break;
            }

            case DLL_PROCESS_DETACH:
            {
                if( MyMemoryFile ) UnmapViewOfFile(MyMemoryFile);
                if( hFileMapHandle ) CloseHandle(hFileMapHandle);
                break;
            }
        }

        return TRUE;
    }

    LRESULT CALLBACK CBTProc(int nCode, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
    {
        if( (nCode >= 0) && (nCode == HCBT_CREATEWND) )
        {
            HWND hWndCreate = reinterpret_cast<HWND>(wParam);
            AnsiString ClassVal =
reinterpret_cast<LPCBT_CREATEWND>(lParam)->lpcs->lpszClass;
            AnsiString DataVal = ("Class " + ClassVal);

            COPYDATASTRUCT cds = {0};
            cds.dwData = 0x4D696B65;
            cds.cbData = DataVal.Length();
            cds.lpData = DataVal.c_str();

            ::SendMessage(MyMemoryFile->hWindowForMessages, WM_COPYDATA, 0,
reinterpret_cast<LPARAM>(&cds));
        }

        return CallNextHookEx(MyMemoryFile->hMsgHook, nCode, wParam,
lParam);
    }
