Disable keys, like Home and End, in the KeyDown event of the Form

[BD]

Hi,

I have a control derived from BindingSource with a property of type
Form that contain the form that owns my control. I set that property
form.KeyPreview=true. I intercept the keys I want to disable, like
Home and End, and I set the e.Handled=true but that keys are always
executed. I think that overriding the ProcessCmdKey resolve my problem
but I don't want to make a component derived from Form to do only
that. What about other alternative do I have?

You can make your form implement IMessageFilter and catch the keys in
the PreFilterMessage method. Here is a FAQ link on this.

Hi,

You'll notice that no matter what form or control has input focus, the
keys is caught in the PreFilterMessage override.
I only want to caught the keys in the active form with the code
handled in my control using the property of type Form. It's that
possible?
