All keyboard keys except one locked out ???

[BobbaFet]

Just like the subject, I want to lock out certain keyboard
keys so that windows cannot receive them, nor any other app.
But I dont want the entire keyboard locked out. Just a
couple of keys (in fact only F12 should be unlocked). How
can I do this?

thanx allot,

You can 'lock' it from your app (when your app is the active window) by using OnkeyDown then

if key = vk_f12 then
//Call my method.

When a key is pressed, Windows generates a WM_KEYUP or WM_KEYDOWN message. I'm not sure how you can stop these being generated. If it's possible, I'd be interested to find out.
