C # Register function using Windows API to call back whenever key is pressed

Question

How can I use Windows API in C# to register a call back function to be called whenever key is pressed?

WinForms, WebForms, MVC, WPF, Console or global hook? – Richard Jul 06 '10 at 09:04 — Richard, Jul 06 '10 at 09:04
More information please. e.g. do you want a global hook? – Dennis Jul 06 '10 at 09:07 — Dennis, Jul 06 '10 at 09:07

A simple google search brings up this promising solution:
Processing Global Mouse and Keyboard Hooks in C#

and even a search here on StackOverflow brings you (beside many others) to: Global keyboard capture in C# application which leads to Low-Level Keyboard Hook in C#.

So where was the big problem in searching this on yourself?

Unfortunately, I have noticed that some users think it is easier to ask then find out for themselves. It is does not take much to do a Google search. I try to avoid answering some StackOverflow questions where the poster hasn't provided sufficient information (i.e., what have they tried to do). – Dennis Jul 06 '10 at 14:24
