I've noticed that when you click in a textarea or field that the Function Keys do not report as an event. I varified this with Mark's EventViewer code (sample directory) Anyway around this? Thanks,

There's a lot lacking with the UI in BlitzPlus. You could check out BLESS (BLitz EventS System) from www.mintysoftware.com. You can monitor keypress events in your textarea no problem. It's in beta, though I'm getting ready to release version 1.0. You can at least check out the examples and sign up for the newsletter so you'll be notified when 1.0 is released.

Using HotkeyEvent fixes the problem (Rich never used them before). :) @soja Bless looked very cool! I've saved your link and plan to use it later. :p L8r,
