Mouse Wheel Hook
Author
Hi.
I'm doing a hook to detect mouse wheel movements:
This code detects well when the mouse wheel is moving, but the problem is that I can't detect the direction of the movement because zDelta is always zero.
Any ideas?
The WPARAM you get in your hook procedure is not the same one youd get when handling the message. The WPARAM is the message. The WPARAM does not include anything else but the message. The delta will come from the MSLLHOOKSTRUCT in the LPARAM.

Thx. :-)

Nice that you fixed it, however I don't recommend you to use WH_MOUSE_LL... this lowlevel function utilizes much more cpu load than WH_MOUSE.
