Thread: A couple things...

I have an edit control on my dialog, and I can't seem to capture the escape key whenever the control is in focus. I tried using Spy++ but I didn't see any relevant messages being sent when I presses escape. All that was showing up was a WM_COMMAND message with a wParam of 2 and an lParam of 0.

Secondly, how can I remove my programs entry in the taskbar? My dialog doesn't have a titlebar, and there's no sense in having a blank entry in the taskbar... that just looks silly.

The RegisterServiceProcess function registers or unregisters a service process. A service process continues to run after the user logs off.

DWORD RegisterServiceProcess(DWORD dwProcessId,
DWORD dwType);

Parameters

dwProcessId

Specifies the identifier of the process to register as a service process. Specifies NULL to register the current process.

dwType

Specifies whether the service is to be registered or unregistered. This parameter can be one of the following values.

Value Meaning
RSP_SIMPLE_SERVICE Registers the process as a service process.
RSP_UNREGISTER_SERVICE Unregisters the process as a service process.
Return Value

The return value is 1 if successful or 0 if an error occurs.

Services are not listed as apps in the task manager. However, they are listed as processes.
