Detect user idle time

G

GeorgeMar

I want to detect if a user has not been active and quit the application. I
have read the article Q128814 - "How to Detect User Idle Time or Inactivity"
from Microsoft.

It talks about using a form with a timer and to detect what form or control
has been activated.

Does anyone know if implementing this, will slow down the application?

many thanks
george

It shouldn't slow it down significantly: the Timer event is "almost free"
(it doesn't take many system resources)
