Set/toggle CAPS-LOCK from a Microsoft Service on XP/VISTA   
I have a basic XP service that runs fine and is set to autostart (written in 
C..).  I need to set/toggle the CAPS-LOCK from the XP service.  All 
typical/documented methods that I have found work great in an application 
but do not work within a service.  I suspect because a service typically 
doesn't need to access the keyboard.   I've tried some attempts to access 
the KB without luck.  Any help would be greatly appeciated.  Also need a 
basic VISTA template so I can update my Service for some Vista clients.   No 
other 'touching' of the keyboard is required in the service at any other 
time.

Also, yup, understand this is a bit unusual.......

Also, if this is not the right area to post this question I'd appeciate a 
point in the right direction.
