Disabling Ctrl+N in browser

[datapath]

Hi,
I am working on a program that uses the browser control.
When the user holds Ctrl+N, a new internet explorer
browser opens. How can I avoid this? I don't want to
let the user have another web browser.
Thanks.

Try to set the form KeyPreview property to true and use the FormKeyPress event to catch the ctrl-N event

void __fastcall TForm1::FormKeyPress(TObject *Sender, char &Key) {
if( Key == '\x0E' ) {
Key = 0;
}
}

Its not working. I think I have to use FormKeyDown to
catch ctrl+n, and I have already set
keypreview to true but cant catch anything!

You are correct in that to catch a combination of keys, you have to use FormKeyDown. Have you tried this in that section of code?

if (Shift.Contains(ssCtrl) && Key == 'N')
{
    // do something
}

Yes, I tried it.
The problem is that there is a button and a browser in the
window of my application. If the button has the focus, it
works, the event is caught. If the browser has the focus
the event is not caught and a new window of internet
explorer is opened.
Didn't find a solution yet...
