Great!
I can't take credit, I'm sure I got it from some website, but I can't
remember where. Glad it worked for you.

Geez, it's one of those days...
Further Clarification...
I call this routine from a timer that fires every minute. If the
lnTimeOut value was 5 minutes (300 seconds) I would probably set the
time to 4 or 5 minutes.
My need is to close out my application if it isn't 'active' because
the workstations are in a retail environment with public access
(smart inquisitive kids.)

What this does is watch for mouse movement or keyboard input as
reported by the OS.
If, after 60 seconds (with this example) no user activity (mouse,
keyboard) the "lnElapsed < lnTick" is true and you can proceed as
you see fit.

This is a huge issue for my application. Here's what I use...
DECLARE INTEGER GetTickCount IN kernel32
DECLARE SHORT GetLastInputInfo IN win32API STRING @
Local lcBuf, lnLast, lnTick, lnTimeOut, lnElapsed
lnTimeOut=60 && # of seconds
lcBuf=BinToC(8,'4rs')+BinToC(0,'4rs')
GetLastInputInfo(@lcBuf)
lnLast=CToBin(Substr(lcBuf,5,4),'4rs')
lnTick=GetTickCount()
lnElapsed = lnLast+(lnTimeOut*1000)
If lnElapsed < lnTick
* do what you want here, they're out of time
EndIf

I wonder what is the best way to kick users out of an app when
they have it open for ages without doing anything (the typical
out-to-lunch). The user has a number of files open and does not
do anything for a long time.
I want to have the system shut itself down after 5 or 10 minutes
of inactivity
Suggestions please
