I'm programming a program so that when the ctrl, alt & delete buttons are pressed the program opens. I'm not sure how I would do that, does anyone have any idea how I might do that? (I'm sort of a beginner) I have VB 6.0.

You have to trap those keys. Every key on the keyboard has a scan code, and some keys like Shift, Ctrl, Alt, and others generate two codes. It's been a LONG time since I wrote a program to read a keystroke and tell what the scan code is. Anyway, I seem to recall the keys like Ctrl, Alt, F-keys and so forth generate a 0 first, then a second code, whereas the regular keys don't. You need to write a program to specifically trap those 3 keys once you have their codes. I don't program in VB so I don't have any code for you, but that's how those things are done. Just key trapping.
