API - keyevents

Dec 19, 2007 3 Replies

Hey gang,



Just starting a little app and have hit the wall already...



In short, using VB6, I'd like to monitor/process key events from within SWX.



But, the app can't monitor key events unless it has focus and you can't work SWX unless it has focus.



I'm thinking I need to build an add-on (dll) to relay the keyevents. I can't find anything re keyevents from SWX online or otherwise.



Can anyone point me in the right direction?



Thanks for any help.



i know it was not intentional but ... thanks, i needed a good laugh about this time of day. ;)

Glad to be of service. Am I out to lunch on this one?

yes you will want to write an addin. I would recommend using vb.net to do so though rather than vb6, I think it will better supported in the future and SWX provides an addin template that you can just customize.
