If you really don't want the user to exit your app, you should probably use *both* of the methods just suggested -- i.e., set the button creator IDs as Roger Stringer describes, *and* catch keypresses as Dave Carrigan suggests.
The reason to catch keypresses in your event loop is that (unless I'm much mistaken) you can't set the creator ID of the 'find' soft button. This creates a back door in your app, since the 'find' result list allows users to open any application that returns a match (imagine if the user searches on 'e'). The button creator IDs must be set unless you're sure you'll have control over all the event loops in you app. Consider: FrmAlert, FrmCustomAlert, and the radio connection dialog in the SPT1x40 all have their own event loops. If you do not set the creator IDs, and the user presses a button while an alert is on the screen, they will again exit your app. If the button creator ID is set to the current application, the keypress will instead be ignored.
