George,

This does not display messages. This sends messages to Sysinternals Process
monitor (ProcMon.exe), a tool that display network, file and registry
activity.

The advantage of sending the messages here instead of the kernel
DebugOutput mechanism (where DbgView or other can pick them up) is the
messages would be displayed inline with file, network and registry access.

ProcMon receives and displays the messages.Wintellect's unmnaged  dll send
messages to procmon. I don't need to actually use wintellects DLL. I can do
it entirely with PInvoke though.

Justin
