how to prevent my button to get focused????

[Michael Andersen]

Is it possible to prevent my button to receive focus?

I have made a button with the property CanFocus and I need to prevent the
button to receive focus if this property is false, then component is based
on a TWinControl.

Disable it. Button1.Enabled := False;

If you really don't want your button to receive focus, try using a
TSpeedButton instead. They work like TToolButtons. However, keep in mind
that your button cannot be pushed by tabbing to it and pushing the space
bar, which is what some power-users do who don't want to bother with the
work invoved in moving the mouse.

Any other ideas I need to use the button as a combination of a speed button
and a normal button. therefore I cannot disable it.

Does it have a TABSTOP property? If so, set it to false.
And also write a handler to handle the WM _SETFOCUS
and WM_ACTIVATE messages. WM_SETFOCUS gets
called AFTER the control receives focus. WM_ACTIVATE
is sent when a window is being activated or deactivated but
