I'm looking to build a "kiosk" style of application in vb.net (using
winforms)...
Writing the application itself is no problem.
What I want to do though is have the PC set so that the application runs
automatically on system startup - is completely modal - no alt-tab's
allowed. I don't want to have the start button or even want the "explorer"
item running at all. I want my application to be the only thing running.
Years ago (window3.1!) I would have done this by chaning the shell in the
win.ini file so that the application run instead of the normal windows
shell, but I doubt that it is that simple in windows 2000/XP (the target
platform).
Can anybody point me in the right directly?
Thanks in advance
