Global KeyPress event hookup?

[Smoke]

How i can globally trap a keypress event? what i mean is, like, trap the CTRL+ATL+V keypress event no matter if my program is the
active or not.
Not sure how to do that, but i guess that i have to do a API hookup or something?

Thanks for the help.

Hi,
You would have to use the SetWindowsHookEx API and use the WH_Keyboard as
a parameter.
Thanks
