Write an app that turns off CAPS LOCK when the SHIFT key is presse

Hi. I'm new to Visual Basic .NET, so you'll have to bear with me . . . I
want to create an app that turns off CAPS LOCK when the SHIFT key is pressed.
I got the code to turn off CAPS LOCK to work, but it only works when the
program has the focus. How can I write an app that will do this while
running in the background?

Use all lower case for ansi c functions, and Capitalise For Platform-Specific. If you call something with caps, then your function name requires caps itself.
