Keyboard navigation on form does not work in Word XP

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



Hello,

I have a COM add-in for Word written in C#.
The add-in is built against the Word XP PIAs and works in both Word XP and Word 2003.

The add-in displays some .NET Windows Forms to the user.

However, when the add-in is running under Word XP, keyboard navigation between controls on the forms (TAB, arrow keys) does not work.
Same keyboard navigation works as usual then the add-in runs under Word 2003.

Does Word XP filter out the keystrokes?
How can I make it work?


Best wishes,
Alex.
