shortcut to a shortcut key

this is a strange behavior of buttons with shortcut keys, when You have a
datagrid on a form and some buttons with shortcut keys. When You click on
the datagrid (anywhere but the cells, free space, header or something) and
press the shortcut key (without the ALT key pressed) button's action is
called.

You can easyli recreate this by creating a simple project with datagrid and
a button with shortcut key (&Delete in the Text property for example). Then
add event handler for rhis button's click event, for example show a message
box. Run the app. click anywhere on the datagrid. press the D button
(without ALT).
The button's action is called.

how can I prevent this from happening?

I am writing a C# app that has a Menu. Some of the menu items will have short cuts that do not exist in the Shortcut enum. I would like the custom shortcuts to appear on the menu but as far as I can tell there is no way to add a short cut that is not in the Shortcut enum. I have my on keyboard hook so I am not worried about the custom shortcut magically working. I just want it to appear nicely formated on the menu. Anyone have any...

A97. If you set a forms properties to ShortcutMenu = No, the entire form is disabled from displaying a shortcut menu. If you set the property to Yes, all controls have a shortcut menu. I have a form that I would like a shortcut menu on 1 control and no shortcut on any other control in the form. But the controls that have no shortcut display a default shortcut. Access help states " If you set the ShortcutMenuBar property to a value

I recently discovered, that if you set the startup options for "security", you will have alot of work do to get Access back to "normal". If you disable the built-in menus/toolbars you'll have to reconstruct the one you want as a custom menu/shortcut(popup)/toolbar. All this was a long journey in order to allow the user to sort/copy on a datasheet view of a subform, with all the menus disabled in the startup options.

Hi, the application I am writing has a MainMenu and a DataGrid (UltraGrid). Now I have to edit the text of each cell in this grid. So far so good. All works fine in editmode but if I press a key which is also a shortcut it doesn´t work and the menuitem-clickevent will be performed.

I've written an application using VB.NET 2003 and packaged it with a deployment project. When I use the setup program to install the application, however, it doesn't work. More specifically, the shortcut placed in the Start Menu doesn't work. I've noticed that the shortcut is strange. Unlike a normal shortcut, I can't see the command it is supposed to issue. This makes it very difficult to debug the problem. Furthermore, I suspect that...
