Please help, we're struggling with the following for a while now.

We developed an application for Tungsten C; as you know, it has a built-in 
keyboard; When the application is opened on the PDA, we lock all the keys on 
the keyboard, so that any inadvertent tapping of the keys won’t disrupt the 
application (e.g. pressing the “Home” key on the PDA will not take the user out 
of the application and bring the user to the Palm home screen); We want to 
force the user to stay within the application until he / she completes it and 
not be able to get out of the application prematurely. Within the application, 
when there is a need to enter data, we unlock the hardware keyboard’s 
alphanumeric keys, so users can enter data; we also pop-up Palm’s on-screen 
keyboard to allow users to enter data using on-screen keyboard; on the 
on-screen keyboard, there are 4 tabs, (abc, 123, Int’l, Sym) to allow users to 
enter alphanumeric information; the last tab on this keyboard, “Sym” has no use 
for this application and it has created problems for us couple of times; if 
users tap on “Sym” tab, and then tap on “Remap” or “Shortcut” the application 
ends and the user is taken to a Palm preferences screen or Palm main screen; so 
we want to make this “Sym” tab invisible to users or disable it; any ideas on 
how to make the “Sym” key on the pop-up keyboard invisible or disabled; 

 

When our Application is running, if Graffiti is turned on, the stylus key taps 
(to answer questions on the screen) aren’t that sensitive and accurate, so we 
are forced to turn it off for the entire application, but that takes away 
user’s ability to enter information using graffiti writing; so we want to 
enable / disable Graffiti selectively throughout the Application, as needed 
(i.e. enable Graffiti when focus is on a textbox, disable it at all other 
times); so I used the "EvtEnableGraffiti()" function to enable or diable 
graffiti; while it works fine on the simulator, it doesn't seem to work on the 
device (Tungsten C); any ideas about what could be wrong ?

Thanks in advance for any help.
