Thanks Matt :)
Can one app, myBackground App, make this 'mcActionShowMessageString'
request to another external app, Quicktime, by sending C/System calls
?
I can target QT's PID number from my background app.
I am thinking of designing a plugin for my application's platform,
NSIS, that does this.
I am still pretty new to this so any push in the right direction is
appreciated .
I am using myBackground app to extend the capabilities of my QT
projects.

is there some documentation on how an application requests a

This would be a great help.....
Debugstr would be a whole lot simpler than the work-around I have
employed for inter-app communication
thanks eric :)
Your application gets these from a movie callback procedure. I
think
these are called action filters. Or at least that is what we named
ours.
Then you need to look for mcActionShowMessageString.
Then you can get the data with some code like below.
StringPtr aStringPtr = (StringPtr)theParameters;
Where theParameters is the data passed into the procedure.
Hope that helps.
