hi, Is there a way to disable keys such as ALT-TAB or CTRL-ESC or CTRL-ALT-DELETE, etc while running a program in full screen mode? There must be a way since professional games such as Quake-III have them disabled. I want it to work in Win9x. I found an example that works for WinNT only.
Yes! There are kangaroos in Australia but I haven't seen them...yet
I don''t remember exactly what it is, but I believe there''s a DirectDraw cooperation level flag that will disable alt-tabbing. Check out the SDK for it.

I know that disabling them is an easier answer, but technically it is a Windows program so it should adhere to the (dictatorship?) rules of Windows, thus allowing ALT-TABing.

Believe me, if you allow ALT-TABing it makes it a lot easier for kids to play it in school. (Hit it when the teacher comes to look over your shoulder)

i meant using Windows commands not specific APIs.
