how to know which message is sent when i pressed a icon?

[Sridhar]

HI Friends,
i want to know which icon is pressed in standard tool bar
(ex:cut icon is clicked etc.) and i want to record in a file as "cut" icon is
clicked..is it possible to record?

How to know the message is sent using SendMessage() or Postmessage()
when i clicked the "cut" button(is it possible to know by using spy++).

I am trying to record the above information("cut" button is clicked
etc..) by using hook WH_GETMESSAGE and trapping WM_COMMAND message. please
explain me the process how can we achive this? if possible please send some
code or explain by using which functions it is possible...

Thank you in advance..

Nothing interesting, apart copy-paste from MSDN....
See rather MSDN documentation about hooks and the C code samples for
all types of hook
