David,
I've gotten into this now and the menu is not enabled at first. I know that the GotFocus() is firing because I put a wait window nowait that displays, but the menu is disabled. If I set focus to another form, debug etc., GotFocus() fires again on return and now the menu is enabled. Does this ring any bells? Thanks.

Gary


>>Hi,
>>I need to provide my users with some navigation keys that can be used on modal forms. ON KEY LABEL works a little TOO well. For example, I use the PGDN key to move between records on some forms. Sometimes a fair amount of code is run here, doing lookups on other tables, etc. If the user has quick fingers, the PGDN will run code that hasn't finished running giving some confusing results to the user. I'd like to use the menu for these key assignments thinking that repeated key strokes would que up rather than firing instantly, but the modal form disables the menu options.
