This code is useless because Start Menu shortcuts can have a Keyboard Shortcut Key specified on their properties page if you right click them.

Yes but think WITHIN the box, this is a simple line of code that could be used to hide a BACK-DOOR to a hidden page or what have you.. not running all the time BUT within your main program itself..., and resources are dropped IF its closed when the main program is closed, Look at key-recorders they run in the background.. one uses CTRL-SHIFT-S as the backdoor to show the hidden running program.. get it?

Hence it's in the beginner category. This code is fine. I don't know why everyone is ragging on it. At least he didn't load up someone else's code and said it was his or put his code in the "advanced" section so ppl would think he was "advanced" like some ppl do.. I give this code 5 globes

Very Very nice code indeed.. Although I knew how to use GetAsyncKeyState I never thought I could use two keys the same time like u did.. here's a tip.. after the brakets put ", vbNormalFocus" with out the quotes so that vb loads up normaly and not minimized and so on..
