Author Activity Tracking?
Martin

2006-01-09, 10:46 pm

Hi all,

Is there a way in VB6 to track activity (mouse/keyboard) of the user within
the App? I want to lock the app after a certain time of no activity, even
when the user is still working on a different app on the same PC. That's why
no screensaver can be used.
Is there a way to do this, without a lot of custom code in every
form/control?

Tia, and happy holidays to all,
Martin

Perhaps this provides some possible direction:
