I don't think this is exactly the effect I need. I want something
like the "device lock" screen (e.g. control panel->device
lock->change lock code). The text box doesn't seem to be read-only
because the text in it doesn't get grayed out. I guess it is
simply unable to receive the focus. However, the buttons somehow
also emulate a key press for the text box. The buttons don't just
set the text directly as the number that is entered shows up for a
brief moment then turns into an * which doesn't happen if I just
programmatically change the text in the box.
So assuming that disabling a text box from receiving the focus is
sufficient to prevent the on-screen keyboard from showing up,
what's the best way to send a synthetic key press to the text box?
