No, I exactly mean the SPI_SCREENSAVERRUNNING parameter which can disable
also CTRL+ALT+DEL and CTRL+ESC.
I tested what you have explained but with no success. I have declared the
Hotkey and then I tried to catch it by the WM_HOTKEY message in WndProc
function:
RegisterHotKey( Handle, idAltTabKey, MOD_ALT, VK_BACK );
...
void __fastcall TFMain::WndProc(Messages::TMessage &Message)
{
switch ( Message.Msg ) {
case WM_HOTKEY:
....
....
break;
default:
TForm::WndProc(Message);
break;
}
}
...
Is there anything wrong?
Thank YOU!
