Matt,
That's kinda what I already tried to do.
Since it wasn't working - I made a small program that just displays a
number - and allows you to hit certain keys to change the value - and
just redisplay it. But, the ON KEY LABEL thing just does NOT work - as
though it is Ignored when INKEY is running. Here is that Test Code I
created:
CLEAR
x=5
@ 2,2 say "The Value: " + ALLTRIM(STR(x))
DO WHILE .T.
ON KEY LABEL F12 WAIT WINDOW "OK - F12 key WAS Hit!"
y=INKEY(0)
ON KEY LABEL F12
DO CASE
CASE y = 13 && Hitting ENTER Exits!
exit
CASE UPPER(CHR(y)) = "W"
x = x + 10
CASE UPPER(CHR(y)) = "Z"
x = x - 10
ENDCASE
@ 2,1 clear to 3,50
@ 2,2 say "The Value: " + ALLTRIM(STR(x))
ENDDO
RETURN
TIA,
-K-

Depending on how you route through the PRG's to get to the one that
snags the INKEY value, maybe you could intercept that BEFORE that call
takes place. Have this new program deal with what you want from your
ON KEY stuff, if it doesn't apply to what you want to do then have
this one pass it along to the original...
Example: Your current code prolly goes something like this:
ProgramA
->ProgramB
---->Program with special stuff
-------->Your new program with ON KEY functionality
Insert your ON KEY program ahead of it:
ProgramA
->ProgramB
---->Your new program with ON KEY functionality
-------->Program with special stuff
With any luck that's one change to the caller program in ProgramB
