Hello,
CAD doesn't seem to work on Win7 at logon screen.
I thought that was fixed in 3.63 ?

Thank you

You can download the utility in the post and put it into the host binary
folder. The host should then execute it when the control sends the message to
trigger CAD.

How about integrate it into RTC Control ?
(as i can see the cad.exe is in delphi ...)

The best way is to detect the CAD Screen and if you press the
"Send CAD" on the control to send the special "CAD" codes else
to use the usual way.

CAD.EXE is a utility that is signed and using a special MS library to do what
it does. We've sent a message to the email address that supposedly will give
us access to this library but haven't heard back (tried several times from
different email accounts of course). We've also filed a request with our MS
buddy but no luck there either yet. That's why we decided to go with the
current solution for the moment.

Well the solution is there:
http://softltd.com/simulate-ctrl-alt...d-server-2008/

Now if you can contact the author and get a deal of the source code.

HA! Thanks! Even if we don't get the source code we might get the right to
distribute a DLL or link an OBJ. Let's see. So far there was only one
commercial solution out there which was rejected by management due to the high
per customer licensing cost of it (sorry can't give anymore details).
