Hi,

Not sure if this question goes here, but here we go:

I have a tool bar form floating over the main form with StayOnTop set to
true. Sometimes the tool form has focus, but I want keyboard key presses
(not mouse key events) to be passed on to the main form. I know which
control on the main form to give focus, and how to do it, but the catching,
screening and then passing on of the keyboard events eludes me.

Any easy solutions?

Sincerely,
  Anders
