Hi just wondering if there is a way to run my application to show a form
during device "wake up" before exiting and running other applications? I
know I can register to receive the sysNotifyLateWakeUpEvent event but how
can I make my application run before any other application does (eg. when a
hard button is pressed and another application is queued to launch). It' a
simple program to display a note to remind the user of something? Any input
is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
York Kie

When you wake up with hard key, you have vchrHard? key in event queue.
Modal event loop inside FrmAlert process this key and run application. You
can flush queue (be aware, the can be vchrResetAutoOff for OS5) or change
alert form to attention manager notification.

Check keyMask and event queue.
