Monitoring a virtual memory area (Win32)

Is there any Win32 API function for monitoring a particular area in a program's virtual memory. For example, a notification message's spawn if there's a read/write operation upon the area.

You want to use guard pages along with VirtualQuery (probably in a loop) for monitory memory regions, for code sections you'd need to use HW or SW (INT3) breakpoints, this requires writing a small, mini-debugger, such as this tutorial shows.

I think the only way you can do this is through the debugger api.
