QuestionHow to trigger when any window/dialog opens within Windows Pin
Saber Of Borg24-Mar-06 5:55
Saber Of Borg24-Mar-06 5:55 
Please excuse me if this is an 'obvious' or 'trivial' question . . . I'm a C# newbie . . . familiar with VB5 (learning VB.NET and C#.NET), but this .NET arena is quite different Blush | :O

I would like to trigger an event when a window or dialog opens-up anywhere in the Windows environment. I wish my C# applet to take some action (specifically, to pop that window/dialog to the foreground of all other open windows) when it senses that a window/dialog has just appeared-on-the-scene; I don't want to trigger when a user merely "Restore"s (i.e. un-minimizes) an already-open application. I'm trying to write a 'tray' applet which watches for the Outlook2003 "Reminder" dialog (which often pops-up BEHIND open applications, thus not waking-me-up for my appointments ;-O ) and forcing it to the foregound . . . and possibly playing a 'sound' to get my attention.

Any pointers on how to do that, or which keywords I should be using in searches? I've tried "trigger window open" (and similar words), but haven't stumbled upon anything useful yet.

Thanx (in advance).
