Capturing Keystrokes in other applications

[FuZe]

I'm using visual basic 6.0, and I want to know how to capture keystrokes in other applications.  I know there's an API function, SetWindowsHookEx, that can capture keystrokes (and other events) in my own application, but I can't get it to work with other applications.  Can someone help me out? Thx.

Found the answer to my question:
An API called Register Hot Key

Will a hot key still be delivered to the application the key was pressed in? Is it a direct replacement to hooks?
