Hi, I'm programming on HTC touch 2 Dual ( WM 6.5) a standalone .Net application. Is there anyway (via registry or programmatically, C#) to block/disable the action of the hardware button HOME that make go out my app?

I tested:

- onKeyUp event e keyPreview = TRUE

- keyboard hooking

and I managed to disable all the other buttons (volume, windows button, etc.) but I couldn't disable the HOME BUTTON and the suspension button.

Thanks very much in advance for all the useful suggestions,
Fran

Not as far as I can tell. It's like trying to block Ctrl-Alt-Del on a PC. You can't do it.

Ok, via software it could be impossible but I think strange that there aren't any keys in the registry of the the OS to ri-associate/or to disable the action of that button.

anyway Thanks Dave
