Hi All, Could any one tell me how to trap Keyevents (Keyup, down etc.) with out displaying any GUI components? I noticed that the KeyEvents are delivered only when the GUI component is shown and focus is on that. I want to get Keycodes with out displaying any GUI component. My application does not require any GUI component. Any help would be appreciated. thanks and regards, syam ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
