Dear All, I need your help in cracking a problem i am facing....... I want to track the saving of a file using 'Save As' menu option of different applications(like notepad, word, excel , acrobat) etc. I guess it requires system wide hooking of some APIis like getsavefilename etc. But then what i found is MS OFFICE utilities use some other alien APIs which i am not able to figure out, I am really struck here... I appreciate any help in this direction I am using VC++ on windows XP Thanks in advance Dinakara K
