    I am working at an Internet Explorer plug-in. (afp viewer plug-in) I want to use the shortcut keys CTRL-R and CTRL-H to do some actions (reset view,...). The problem is these keys are shortcuts for IE. Is there a way to get the keyboard messages before they go to IE? Or should I use other shorcuts?

      Why do you want to mess up with those predefined shortcut keys? Using some key combinations of your own will be a wise idea. But that's just my opinion.

          It is your duty to explain him that the user will be annoyed if your application overrides predefined shortcut keys. Secondly, explain him the complexities involved in doing it. It is not impossible, but it is not worth doing.
