I may be wrong but FrmDoDialog does not call your main event handler so
EvtGetEvent with your nilEvent timeout value is never getting called.
I had an application that trapped the keyboard and HW buttons in my main
event handler. When I used FrmDoDialog, the virtual keyboard and the HW
buttons resumed their standard responses. I solved it by not using
FrmDoDialog, made my own dialog with custom event handler.
