INKEY() seems to have lost it's usefullness, at least on my workstation.

C0000005 error rears its ugly head when an attempt is made to determine keyboard activity...

At first it only seemed to POP up when attempting to wait " inkey(2) "
but now any inkey() after a sleep still forces the application into oblivian.

How would you look for keyboard activity within 2 seconds of a prompt?

TIA
