Default Outlook does not pass keyboard event to an OCX

Hi,

I am developing an OCX that is to be embedded on an Outlook custom
form. I am running into an issue of not being able to receive keyboard
shortcuts events from Outlook such as: Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C Ctrl-V
(cut/paste) etc...

When I run the OCX (VB) outside Outlook, then everything is fine. But
once its embedded into Outlook we don't get these events. Apparently
Outlook does not pass those to the OCX control therefore we're unable
to process them. I get the same behavior even when I use standard
Microsoft OCX controls.

Does anybody have any idea how to force outlook to pass these shortcuts
to the OCX?

Thanks,

Ronnie
