System Hook (Tuesday, September 14, 2004)

Found the following interesting discussion in the Newsgroups:

System Hook by:Anonymous
I have been developing in VB6 for years. I am converting to VB.net. I was wondering if it is possible to create a System hook in VB.net. I know that I VB6, I could not, so I created one in C++. If it is possible, could you please provide an example. Thanks! Also, could you please provide good resources (books or online articles/tutorials) that would be good for someone who is advanced VB6 programmer converting to VB.net. Thanks!

	Programming Microsoft Visual Basic.NET Core Reference by Francesco Balena is a really good book from my point of view, coveres everything from simple stuff to way more advanced topics

	I assuming your talking about Global Hooks? Any particular kind? I've had this discussion with a couple people never found an answer I was 100% satisfied with. From my undersatnd, generally no, because you can't inject the DLL into other processes. But for keyboard hooks you can. At least the way I undersatnd it you can. However, I was told you can't do it with a mouse... here's and article that may help.
