ALT keys - works without pressing ALT

[jodleren]

Hi all

I use the TDBGridEh (enhanced), in a from togther with buttons such as
Select and Close - as &Select and &Close.
They should react to Alt+S and Alt+C only, but they react to simply S
and C.

Any ideas why and how I can overcome the problem?

It is a modal window.

It's not a bug, it's a feature.

If the focus is on a control that will take text input, the focused
control will receive typed text. But if simple unshifted keypresses
would otherwise be lost, they may be captured as accelerators. (By
Windows. Probably nothing you can do about that.)

Doubtlessly there are subtleties involved, like what happens for
readonly editboxes and such, but that's the basic idea.
