When you think about it, this is not really the kind of thing that a single API could handle. The goal is to detect inactivity on the part of the user. The example provided by M$ does just that by checking if the active form has not changed in the defined time and that the active control on whatever form has not changed either. There's not much else you can do. If a user is interacting with a database then one or other of those objects is going to be changing frequently. So a timer event kicking off every few seconds or so fits the bill quite well.

I was hoping for something a little more succinct -- like an API or something, but I haven't found anything. Thanks! Susan H. > Hidden form. Timer even on said form.
