im learning to make things to other windows like resize the ie or any type of window. the only problem i don’t know how i can get or give messages to other windows.
so like i pressed a key in ie i would like to get that message to my program too!
any idea
To get the messages that are sent to windows programs you have to install a hook in order to listen to the messages you want. You do this via the SetWindowsHookEx function.
However, I believe that you should read a book about this kind of behaviour, since there are certain rules you have to apply. For instance, before returning from your callback function, you have to call CallNextHookEx in order to let the other hooks handle the message. This is the first hit in books.google.com when searching for setwindowshookex.
