J.J.,

Try hooking OnChildActivate and OnChildDeactivate from the desktop window. E.G.

ConnectEvent DesktopWindow, "OnChildActivate", "OnChildActivate"
ConnectEvent DesktopWindow, "OnChildDeactivate", "OnChildDeactivate"

Sub OnChildActivate(oWindow)
'... if this is your dialog, register hotkeys.
End Sub

Sub OnChildDeactivate(oWindow)
'... If this isn't your dialog and you have already registered hotkeys, unregister now.
End Sub

HTH.
Steve

Hello. I want to add an event in my dialog where if a number is pressed, focus 
is moved to a particular field and the number is entered.
I looked at the immed script since I know it uses select all as a key from 
within the window. I see the idea would be to register a hotkey (or in this 
case 10) from within the dialog and dump them once the dialog is closed.
It's the unregistering part that confuses me. I notice that the selectAll key 
is unregistered for the dialogClosing event which I assume is as the dialog is 
closing, go figure. But what about if the dialog loses focus? Is this being 
accounted for in this script or is there another event to watch for? Obviously, 
I only want these numbers to work from within the dialog box.

Thanks for any help.
