Making my app 'take' focus.

Is there a way of forcing focus for input onto my app's form even if Windows
(or another app) displays a modal dialog etc?

The reason for this is that my app runs on a 'car PC' with keyboard input
only and no display or mouse, so I need a way of keeping the app accessible
at all times, whatever happens...

Thanks,

Andy
