I use timers in my main prg and forms to time them out after a certain amount of mouse and keyboard activity. This seems to work fine except when the menu is 'active'.

For example, if I start my app and just hit {ALT} to be in the menu, the timer's Timer() event will fire (which quits the app) but the app doesn't actually shut down until I 'deactivate' the menu (i.e. press {ALT} again)

Any ideas?
