I need to know the default action of double click or right click in excel?

I have used an Excel viewer in my C# Winform application. This viewer opens different .xls files with various number of sheets dynamically. I have to protect all sheets at the beginning of the application and also end of the sheetchange event handler.

Now I want to allow user to use some shortcut keys like {F1} or Ctrl+S. But none of the keys are working and I think this is because of the protection that I have applied on sheets. Am I right?

I have found that when i double click or right click on a cell all of the keys activated again! so it seems that the excel do what i need in background as its default double or right click action.

thanks in advance...

You could try to set focus to the component that holds this excel.
This might put excel in focus just like right clicking on it will do!

Hi Abhinav S and thanks.I tested the following code but it had no effect :
myExcelViewer.Focus();
Did you mean something like this?

Yup I did mean that. It did appear to be a control fcous issue.
Thanks for trying though.
