I am opening a window with a string gadget and OK and Cancel buttons. I use WMHI_VANILLAKEY to catch Enter (13) and Escape (27) keys to act as if the buttons were clicked.

The problem I have is when typing in string gadget and hit Enter it automatically closes the window at VANILLAKEY with Enter (13) key. How do I stop this?

I want:

type type type ENTER
deactivate string gadget
Enter (fake click on OK button)

I have been trying to catch it with a hook but can't quite get it to do want I want.

LAYOUT_AddChild,    ChildObjects[GAD_STRING]=StringObject,
    GA_ID,    GAD_STRING,
    GA_RelVerify,    TRUE,
    GA_TabCycle,    TRUE,
    STRINGA_TextVal,    "",
    STRINGA_WorkBuffer,    GlobalStringBuffer,
    STRINGA_MaxChars,    128,
    STRINGA_MinVisible,    25,
    STRINGA_EditHook,    catchEnterHook,
TAG_DONE),

I have put GA_RelVerify to FALSE, also.
