Receive message from another process

I taught how to use messages with the Windows API and actually studied them very well. The problem is I can't figure out how to get a message from another application to run the code in mine.

Basically, I want other users to use a commercial application to press the save button (in a commercial application) and for my application to stop the save message, prompt the user and from that either cancel save, or allow them to continue, or allow save (which I know how to do it via messages).

I just need to know how to catch the message and stop it. If anyone can point me to an API call or function, or just documentation that might help, please.

Check out Microsoft Research Bypass . It is possible, but not easy. Also, take a look at how the cheat codes are executed on the client side. I won't link to any of them, but they are there. This is essentially what you want to do.

I think you will need to attach your application to a running process just like a debugger ... Unless a commercial application has a custom connection method to its architecture to do this.



Next question: ... you want to follow this path.
