I wrote this application to use in the development of an Point Of Sale Suite so that I could catch certain KeyPresses to disallow appostrophies and various other Character Codes during a Jet Database read/write/search without throwing errors.
A small windowed app that will StayOnTop while you are working so you don't really have to switch windows.
It will not catch windows key sequences (IE: Windows key on keyboard or the Ctrl+Esc sequence or the Print Screen button) but it WILL catch the Alt+Tab sequence and Num Lock, Caps Lock, and Scroll Lock.
Instructions: Click the link below to download the code. Select 'Save' from the IE popup dialog. Once downloaded, open the .zip file from your local drive using WinZip or a comparable program to view the contents.
