Whil Hentzen wrote an article on 'KeyMask' in the October '94 issue of FoxTalk. It seems to accomplish what you want exactly. He mentions that it could be obtained on Compuserve's FoxForum as KMASK.ZIP. If you can't find it, email me and I will try to find my companion disk for the magazine and send it to you.
