right click disable in application not html

[thesven]

Is it possible to disable the right click ability when launching an app (not html or flash based)? Pass a string to disable the right mouse button?

calling an exe that I do not have access to the source code so I am looking for a way to shut off the right mouse usage while calling this app. Make sense?

The only way to do that that I know of would be to create a CBT hook DLL and have the DLL intercept the app's message loop and ignore those messages. It is pretty involved. If you are a Win32 programmer who can make DLLs and has a good handle on Windows message loops, let me know and I can find some links to articles for you.

Thanks, I'm no programmer. I was hoping to find a pre-written mouse utility That I could run prior to the app launching to kill this functionality. Haven't found one yet.........bummer

I'm curious...why would you want to do that in the first place?

Re: right click disable in application not html

there is a utility menu we don't want an end user to get into and opening the source code is an issue, make sense?

Re: right click disable in application not html

may I be so unpolite to ask what kind of menu item??
Program?
menu options?

Perhaps the function could be disabled otherwise.

menu options and we have developed a VB app to kill it, seems the only way to do it, thanks
