OnKeyDown event in Word.
Trapping the F12 key.

I can trap the F12 key in the OnKeyDown event and would like to then remove the key so the standard action doesn't also run. 

procedure TIDMWordAddInModule.adxCOMAddInModuleKeyDown(Sender: TObject; var args: TadxKeyDownEventArgs);
begin
   if args.VirtualKey = VK_F12 then
   begin
      args.VirtualKey := 0;
      DoStuff;
   end;
end;


In a standard WinForm OnKeyDown I would set the key to 0 and that is that. Is there any way of removing the key after processing?
