Hi all,
I would like to know where do I start if I want to build an application that
records user events of an application and plays back them.

You might look at OpenNETCF and some of the multimedia stuff in there. I
think that there is at least one sample for waveform recording...

I think he wanted the "journaling" - i.e. being able to record and play back
all input events
 
There isn't enough of SetWindowsHook implemented to do that. You can
capture the low-level keyboard events, but you won't get taps and so on on
the screen. If you are just trying to record what happens to *one*
application, written in .NET CF, you might be able to do that with a
suitable ApplicationEx use (OpenNETCF, again). What is it, exactly, that
you're trying to accomplish with this?

Sorry to head off on a tangent!

I need to record the input/key events of an application and playback them
for testing.

I think that your only option would be to trap all events at the application
level, then. There is no journaling hook in CE, at this point.
