Disable Print Screen?
#11
I don't understand why one want to intercept "Print Screen". Especially since it's pointless. If that doesn't work, I just use "FastStone Capture". This allows me to copy everything that appears on my screen.

Well, maybe I should try to write a program that explains why there are no squares with five corners.  Cool

Happy New Year!

I can't really get into that. The software I'm writing is for someone else that has requested this functionality. I realize this can easily be gotten around by other software.

That's reason enough to do it.  "The boss said so", IS always a valid excuse, no matter what some folks might think.  When you're doing something for someone else, you do it the way they want -- even if it doesn't always make sense to you.

Give that a test run and let me know if it works for you as it should.  According to the return values on those functions, it *should*, but I swear by nothing until it's tested and proven to work in your own stuff.  Smile

@Terry, if it's for a customer, then that's different. Sorry!

Does McNeill's suggestion work? I did a search online and what I found wasn't exactly positive. Maybe you should talk to the client again.

You can't. You can only attempt to scramble whatever gets captured, as discussed here:
