Detecting Window's StartUp
- Thread starter caydes
- Start date
You could arrange for your program to be in the StartUp group. You would know when someone logged in then.<br>
<br>
Alternatively - you could install your program as a Windows Service marked for automatic startup. This is probably the cleaner way to do this as your ordinary user won't be able to remove it.<br>

Thanx mike. The other method I would like to use is to use interrupts. Through interrupts you can trap the pid's of the program running. Then you can check in the ID table for that . If it is running you can get the message as TRUE . <br>Does that answer your question ?<br>Thanx<br>Siddhartha Singh<br><A HREF="mailto:ssingh@aztecsoft.com">ssingh@aztecsoft.com</A>
