I might be able to adapt something based on Craig Boyd's example, but I am hoping to find a way to just tweak what I have.

For example:
I have a function key I capture to save the contents of a form. I implement this by setting form.KeyPreview = .t. and then handling the key press in form.KeyPress(). If in the keypress code I call MESSAGEBOX() it displays the message but doesn't trigger any events on my form. If I call my TCHMSG() function, it causes LostFocus() to occur for whatever field I am in on the form.

I would like to be able to display my custom TCHMSG form without triggering any events on the calling form.
