>>i want to call window's api
>>do u know how to do that in delphi

you have to be new to delphi so im wondering did you get any book with your delphi version?
i think you need to read one on delphi or browse the help files a bit...

here is some very good sites to get you started:
http://delphi.about.com/cs/beginners/
http://www.delphi3000.com/
http://www.torry.net/

they do have answers to your particular problem but you should understand what your doing before doing it ..
 
running before walking can be dangerous ;-)

rajniyadav,

Are you going to tell us if any of the suggestions have helped at all?
