Hey all,
I have an odd issue with my app. Right now I have a form that pauses execution to display some text, then resumes execution by pressing the Space bar, this way:
I call it this way in the code:
I call this routine (stopti) to pause execution until the Space bar is pressed (connects to the above):
It works great, responding perfectly to the Space bar press...unless I minimize the app to use another app or the browser, in which case when I come back to the app it stops responding to the Space bar keypresses completely. Is there a way to just make it wait patiently and act normally to keypresses, even if the user uses something else and comes back to the app?
Thanks!

Code:
Private Sub Form_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)
If KeyAscii = vbKeySpace Then exits = True
End SubCode:
Do
DoEvents
Loop Until exits
exits = FalseCode:
Public Sub stopti()
Timer1.Interval = 0.1
Timer1.Enabled = True
FinishedTime = DateAdd("s", comtextspeed, Now)
While Now < FinishedTime
DoEvents
Wend
Timer1.Enabled = False
End SubThanks!
