(please excuse the long post - hopefully the details are helpful)
Platform: XP Professional
Summary: I am looking for a way to automatically log time spent in various applications. My intuition directs me to identify various trappable Windows’ events and API hooks to get this information. I am open to any and all advice. See business problem below if you want more details on the problem to be solved.
I will be happy to use a preexisting application or if necessary I can create my own. I have my own application tools and can create the necessary database and code with proper APIs to populate it, however I need to trap the Windows Events (or have those events call the APIs). Off the top of my head, I imagine I will need to trap the following for the various applications I use in the course of a day (my code would add a date/time stamp):
1) Windows start time
2) Application start and end. (Application name and startup parameters)
3) Application switches (Application name for switch from app and switch to app) – switch could be either by mouse or <alt>-<tab>.
4) Idle time begin (could be same as screen saver activation) – need app with focus when “idle timed out”
5) Idle time end (need app with focus)
6) Many others I probably forgot
7) Windows log off time
Do any such events exist that are trappable? Will the Windows SDK help (is there only one or do multiple flavors exist)?
Alternatively, I imagine I could use spyware or a key logger (to spy on myself), but would like not to for a few reasons. First, distilling all that information will likely be as much work (or more) than my current manual effort to record the information. Second, I do not want passwords, credit card numbers, etc sitting around in log files.
Business Problem: I am in the software services business (4GL development in the manufacturing sector) and have always tried to keep detailed documentation of the work performed including analysis, communication, development, project managment, etc. This effort has served two very good purposes. First it aids my memory significantly when problems reoccur or people say “remember …?” – my memory is not nearly as good as I would like it to be. Second, it is the foundation for documenting work performed when invoices are submitted. This latter point has been invaluable as well – people see what they are paying for which leads to far less questions and less “sticker shock” especially when they made a multitude of additional requests.
Thank you.

What's the filename extension? What program(s) create/read them? Try using Google to search for file formats using the same extension. There are several sites on the Internet that publish the internal structure of various file formats; you might just get lucky!

Hi, I used windows xp professional. Because everytime that my computer startup and log on is to slow, I decide to choose hibernate everytime that I want to shutdown my computer. When I continue to work, it start again and it is faster than I turn on the machine from shutdown. If I still continue to use hibernate forever, is it have any disadvantage to my system? (Especially hard disk drive).

Hallo,
I am writing an installer, which should also configure a toolbar on the taskbar. This toolbar should show the contens of the directory "D:\Log". I know that this can be easily done by using the mouse, right click on the taskbar and select "Toolbars -> New toolbar..." and choosing the directory "D:\Log" from the dialog box. But how can I do this programmatically using VC++? Or can VBScript also do this? (Other languages are no option in this project.)
Thanks,
StHubi

Hi, I have 5 computer in my house, I want to connect network to use a library to research. But I still have a problem while choosing the hub/switch. I choose 8 port device but I still could not figure out that I should choose hub or switch? I just know that 8 port switch is more expensive than 8 port hub. But I don't know which situation that I should choose hub or switch. Could anyone give me some suggestion to choose between hub or switch to connect network to learn at my home?

The difference between hub/switch:
Hub: Data recieved on any port is broadcasted to all ports in a hub
Switch: Data recieved in a port is sent only to the spefic port it is destined to.
In a switch the speed could be better as data is sent only to the needed ports and not to all ports.
For a network in a house, with less traffic a Hub should do. With just 5 computers and application like yours there would be no difference. So i would suggest you could just go with a Hub.

Thank you very much for your comment! I will buy hub to set a lab at my house.

there would no advantage of using hub or switch at a small network level of yours but if u are plaaning to use hub on price basis then u should go for a switch as there is not big diffrence in switch and hub .
the technical diffrence in hub and switch is , switch has a repeater while there is no repeater in hub , so switch has a advantage of fast data transmission , as the data in such small in not larce as in case of big and vast networks like 100- or more pcs. the switch basically smothens your network , but i would prefer u switch as there no price diffrence in it , so if u want increase number of pc u can have better hardware support support.

Hey,
Just recently loging off or shuting down my computer has starting taking a very long time. I am running Win2k and the hangup occurs when the box pops up that says "Saving Settings..." It takes anywhere from three to five minutes to get past this.
Any ideas on why this takes so long?
-Thanks

The normal cause for that is when you have your My Docs or some shared folder on a network drive. Windows will sync the folder contents at logoff time, and if you have many and/or large files, it will take a while to move the data over the network.

My computer isn't on a network. It just plugged directly into the cable modem.
Any other ideas?
If there is any information I could provide just let me know.

I find this happenning when a driver or service fails to respond to the shutdown message. When I see it happenning on a customer's system I usually can make it go away by removing and reinstalling drivers for various devices; video and sound cards are the most common problem devices. On my system I have an annoying bit of software from Creative Labs (DEVLDR) that delays the shutdown by several minutes, but I live with it rather than mess with the sound card. After all, I only shut down every three months or so...;)

"I find this happenning when a driver or service fails to respond to the shutdown message."
Can this be true even if everything in device manager seems cool(no little yellow signs or red x). So you just reinstall all the drivers and it clears up.
"After all, I only shut down every three months or so..."
You must be keep a pretty tight ship for it to be running that stable. How do you do it .

Yes, it definitely can. Sometimes drivers/services seem to cease listening to their message loops, and appear to go to sleep, especially if you haven't called upon them for a while. I don't know the details, but I suspect that Device Manager only queries the device status as it is loaded and initialized. If that goes smoothly, it will report that everything is cool. If something subsequently fails DM will never notice it, unless you have asked it to perform an operation that fails to execute correctly.

I don't download cute crap that I don't need, and I accept most of the defaults suggested by Microsoft. They generally work well enough for my purposes. I've rarely had a failure caused by a problem in third-party software; only MS updates have killed my system, with the single exception of AOL's AIM application. Win2K is a remarkably stable platform, so long as you don't try to do anything outside of the norm.
XP is something of an unknown to me; I've never had it on a machine of mine, and can see no reason ever to "upgrade." My customers, however, are cursed with it, as most have purchased new PCs with it pre-installed. Working on their machines has given me enough experience to learn that I never want it on anything that I depend upon.

In my experience a clean install of XP is better than any pre-installed system I have ever seen. My XP box only ever shuts off for power outages and hardware maintenance. Though based on what I have seen of 2K (never had it on a machine of my own) there isn't a whole lot of benifit of upgrading a stable win2k machine to xp.

I used to face this problem too. My windows 2000 is working fine but when I install MCAFEE 7.0, I cannot shut down my computer. The message display that "Saving data..." and it still appear whether I keep my computer running one hours. If I remove MCAFEE 7.0 it can shutdown but it not properly too. Some people tell me that MCAFEE 7.0 replay winsock control and some network component, but their explaination seem not logic. Until now I cannot figure out the main problem.
