how do i disable the ctrl+alt+del,alt+tab,alt+close
and start menu button on winnt.Because i have one project
is to prevent the user to enter any unwanted key.

Why not use the registry.
We use this to 'remember' size and position of forms. There should be al kinds of links to this solution. Try 'GetRegistry' in a VB-search-command
 
leon2 -

You cannot disable the ctrl-alt-del on Windows NT as it's what's called the Secure Attention Sequence, and is processed by the hardware in conjunction with the operating system. Your code will NEVER EVER see it. If ordinary application code could disable this, NT would no longer be secure, and thus couldn't pass the goverment's C2 security program (something Microsoft is very proud of).
