 How can I detect if a non-menu key has been pressed?


How can I detect if a non-menu key has been pressed while a menu is displayed?   

    Create a message handler for the WM_MENUCHAR character message. Example:

    unit Unit ;
    interface
    uses
      Windows, Messages, SysUtils, Classes, Graphics, Controls, Forms,
        Dialogs, Menus;
    type
      TForm  = class(TForm)
        MainMenu : TMainMenu;
        One : TMenuItem;
        Two : TMenuItem;
        THree : TMenuItem;
      private
        { Private declarations }
        procedure WmMenuChar(var m : TMessage); message WM_MENUCHAR;
      public
        { Public declarations }
      end;
    var
      Form : TForm ;
    implementation
    {$R *.DFM}
    procedure TForm .WmMenuChar(var m : TMessage);
    begin
      Form .Caption := 'Non standard menu key pressed';
      m.Result :=  ;
    end;
    end.
