There may be an easier way (WSH gurus?) but you could set KeyPreview to .T. in your base form and add code to the KeyPress Event that traps any key or combination of keys that you want.

You may also have to add code to your menus if you can have a desktop with no active form.

>Is there a way to block the alt and windows keyboard keys from a VFP application? I want to deactivate alt+tab, alt+ctrl+del and the start button key and reactivate later in some special events at my application.
