Hooking the keyboard briefly

Hello one and all, I'm in need of some help.  I need to be able to capture the keyboard entry, but still capture what is being entered and then after the enter button or tab button is pressed, the captured values are in a string.  So, let's say I press button Number 1.  The capture begins.  Once the enter button or tab button has been pressed the captured value(s) comes out in a messagebox.  

Thanks so much, hopefully I've made sense.

One other thing.... I forgot to mention this.  Once the keyboard has been captured, no other program can use it until it's released again.
