Hello,

While I'm browsing the web my 9 mth old baby likes to hit the keyboard so I
want to write a little app to lock the keyboard. This way she can keep
playing with the keyboard without disturbing the PC. I plan to have an icon
on the tray that I can click to enable or disable the keyboard.
I tried using "KeyPreview" property and KeyPress event on a form to trap
keyboard entries but this does not provide a system wide solution.
Is there an API to lock the keyboard system wide but not the mouse?


Thank you,

Alejandro
VB 6.

May be this helps:

Thank you Juergen, I think windows "Hooks" is the way to go.
