Disable arrow keys or other solutions?

Hi all,

I'm running a Revolution program and hit a problem. Instead of clicking the "continue" buttons to advance to the next screen, users are able to press the arrow keys to advance back and forth in the program across the cards. I have code triggered by the "continue" button mouseUp events, so use of the arrow keys causes massive problems. Is there a way to disable arrow keys for the duration of the program? If so, how do I do that?

Is there a better solution and if so, could someone spell it out for me. I can't close windows because users occasionally may be directed back to a previous screen.

On a related note, my program is also shut down by the automatic "firing" of norton symantec's scheduled scan task. Is there a way to stop that without administration purposes?

The first issue is much more important and needed.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Josh

Hi Josh,

If you search the built-in docs for "arrow" you get 6 or 7 entries. One of them is "navigationArrows", which should solve your problem.

It worked
