    Question capturing mouse events

    Hi all,

    I would like to know if there is any method of capturing mouse events directly from the OS? Normally we try to tap into a windows procedure call to learn what the mouse is doing but I want to do this on a global scale regardless of which window is active.
    Basically I would like to hide the cursor whenever the middle button is clicked(any where on the screen) and appear otherwise

    Regards

    Can somebody move this to 'programming & web design' please ? Its in the wrong place !

    My 'best shot' at this would be to suggest to use either 'mouseinput' or 'mousekeys' functions from the windows api details about that - here
