Use KeyDown instead of KeyPress.
>I have implemented your answer "7.6 How can I listen for certain keys at the Form level irrespective of which Control has the focus?". Some keys are going to my code, but not all : the Fn keys, or a letter corresponding to a button shortcut do not go thru this routine. What can I do ? Thank you.

Hi
Some other way using Win API
declare fun like this
[DllImport("User32.dll")]
private static extern short GetAsyncKeyState( System.Int32 vKey);
then u can use this code in timerelasped or inside a thread
foreach(System.Int32 i in Enum.GetValues(typeof(Keys))){
if(GetAsyncKeyState(i) == -32767 && ActiveForm.Text=="") {
MessageBox.Show(Enum.GetName(typeof(Keys), i));
}
}
this wil chk the key state.better place it in infinite loop.
If u omit form.text check it will respond to the keypresses in other applns too.
