Hi,
I am using BCB5 Pro With windows 98SE & XP
Current Application uses several threads. 
Main Form has many Components
If I press a Key when a component Focus=true key response works 
fine.
Is there a Global key Press command to recognize a key has been 
pressed even if on different component ?
Or is this something to be done through a seperate thread?
Desired: if user presses Down Arrow Key : how to recognize this?
regardless of which component has focus.

Thanks In Advance
Andrew
