Hi all, my son loves to "type" and i dont want him screwing up word anymore so im gonna pop out a proggie that he can type to his little hearts content. The problem is he has pretty good mouse control and can minimize/maximize and close programs, now what I want to do is remove the control box, max and min etc so he cant do it, also redirect the alt, ctrl etc keys to avoid alt/f4's and stuff. Now, what would be the best way for me to be able to close the proggie without being able to alt/f4 or x it?

Help! he changed fonts today to one i didnt know i had...

Put a password popup in QueryUnload. If the correct password isn't entered then don't close the form.

Then you don't need to block any keys at all.

Or get one of those nice little programs out there that are designed just for parents like you. They roll back all the settings changes at the click of a button.
 
I think he will be able to crack passwords soon, he already knows half of the screen saver pw. I also dont want a pw for such a simple little proggie
Good suggestion, any others?

I wonder if he can crack a series of keystrokes, on a window that has zorder on top all the time. Karl Blessing aka kb244{fastHACK}
