Hotkey support for a COM based VBE add-in

[N Raja]

Hi,
I am new to VB and am writing a IDTExtensibility based add-in for the VB IDE. I can't figure out how I can provide hotkey support for my add-in. Adding toolbars etc is usual but I wish to go one step further and allow the user to trigger the add-in from a hotkey.
Any help will be deeply appreciated.
Nas.

Hi,

There is a hotkey control at http://www.merrioncomputing.com/Download/index.htm that shows you how to do this using the RegisterHotkey API call and watching for WM_HOTKEY messages.

HTH,
