Hello! This is my first post to these forums.
Here is my scenario, I have a lowlevelkeyboard hook in my program. The keydown event checks the active window title to see if a microsoft word document is open, and when the letter 'y' is pressed a contextmenustrip is called.
Everything works great except for the arrow keys. When the contextmenustrip is visible, the arrow keys will not select or move through items in the contextmenustrip. I set up some IF statements to check if the contextmenustrip is open, and when it is the up/down arrow keys select the next item in the menu. The problem is that the word document has actual focus and the up/down keys are still sent to the word document (causing the line the cursor is on.)
I have tried using e.suppresskey in the keydown event to try to prevent this, but the keys are still pressed on the word document. Any suggestions?
