Hello,

I am experiencing an unwanted behaviour that bypass my control and let my users to perform weird things.
If I use

Exclamation("warning something");

to warn the eser that an EditString ctrl inside a GridCtrl cannot be empty, I see that the user may use the ESC key to close the esclamation window. Then he press again the ESC key and magically he entered a void string where it should never occur. If instead he use the "OK" button in Exclamation() then everything is OK.
The ESC key seems to work closing other windows.

The question is: is there a way to disable the ESC key when answering in a modal dialog?

Thanks,
Luigi
