Hi I got the sample code for hooking keyevent.
It works on winxp but not on win7.
The sample code uses SetWindowsHookEx & LowLevelKeyboardProc API.
I tried to find out the solution, but I failed.
Is there anyone who knows the reason?

Thanks in advice.

You probably need to run the application with elevated privileges in Win7.
Right click on the EXE and select "Run as administrator".

Seems Reasonable.
