You can always use the pretranslatemessage handler.

hi,
i did tried using pretranslatemessage but it only works if i open a new document from FILE->NEW.
but i am trying to open a powerpoint from my program. ie. FILE_>OPEN_>XX.ppt. then by using pretranslate, it does not detect any keyboard inputs.
you know why?
thanks..

OK, you must use a system wide keyboard hook.
|
|
|

The keyboard messages go to the window that has keyboard focus. If it's another application then
you'll need to use a system hook (SetWindowsHookEx()). If you want just the messages to your app
then you can handle WM_KEYDOWN, WM_KEYUP, and/or WM_CHAR messages in the window class of interest.

hi,
I am trying to use my program and when i clicked FILE->OPEN->xx.ppt (powerpoint),the powerpoint appears. afterwhich i need to detect keyboard inputs. is this what you meant by "another application" ?
so i should use setwindowshookex()? is it very tedious?
thanks..

Yes powerpoint is another application (unless you wrote it, of course  )
SetWindowsHookEx Function[^]
It's not very tedious. The API is relatively simple. Processing every keystroke and weeding out
the ones you're interested in may be tricky.

1. You need to have latest platform SDK.
2. Your IDE should be configured to include files from latest SDK. VC 6 doesn't includes latest SDK files by default. You need to set those paths using Tools-->options-->Directories.

It's not enough to assign _WIN32_WINNT the correct value. It also has to be done in the right spot. I find that it's best to place it before any #include statements in the project's stdafx.h file.
Other than that, ensure that the function's prototype exists in your winbase.h file.

I already had SDK installed...
Adding _WIN32_WINNT before #include statements in stafx.h worked!
Thank you all for your help!

I have created a project. I have taken the EXE from Release and tried to run in a system that doesn't have Visual Studio. Its running in some systems and in some systems it's not.
Do I need to install anything? Please help me.
Thanks in advance.

it is complaining at some dlls missing, isn't it ?
then either provide those DLLs with your exe, or compile with statically linked MFC.
|
|
|
|
|
Nothing happens, when I click on the exe.
It does not give any error message.
Even its not there in Processes in Task Manager.
|
|
|
|
|
how the different system differ ?
also, maybe this[^] article may be worthing it to be read 
|

It depends which dlls your exe needs. For exe with VS 2005 you need to install the VS 2005 Runtime. There is a vcredist_x86.exe in the VS directory. This exe installs the runtime.

vcredist_x86.exe installs the c/c++ runtime + mfc dll's.
This is needed for apps written with VS2005 and VC8.
It has nothing to do with managed (.NET) or not!

Well duh...
I was pointing out that the original poster didn't say which he was using...

I don't think he assumed that, John. vcredist_x86.exe is not about the CLR. It installs the latest MFC, ATL, and CRT DLLs.

Use dependency walker to identify dpendent dlls, and make sure , they are shipped on target machine.
