The EvtGetEvent call returns the keyDownEvent. Your handler should handle
the event first, before it is passed to SysHandleEvent. Try something like
this:
while (true)
{
EvtGetEvent (&event, 50);
if (!HandleKeyDown(&event))
if (!SysHandleEvent(&event))
FrmDispatchEvent (&event);
}
HandleKeyDown is your function to handle the keyDownEvent. Have it return
true on any key that you do not want the system to handle.

Steve
