Make a textbox not blink?

I am trying t开发者_高级运维o get a control i can click on, press any keys (except tab) and have it take in the input. I tried using this and had a problem with the arrow keys changing the focus. That question is here.

The textbox seems to work but i dont like how it blinks. As in the line that shows where you next letter will be placed. How do i fix this?

Blinking is a system wide option. Check this out.

If you create a UserControl based on the standard textbox you can use [Control::IsInputKey][1] to override default behaviour which causes the control to lose focus.
