Event delay / catch event and execute manually ...

Hi,

I can veto an event to stop processing it via event.Veto()

Now I want to do something BEFORE processing an event. (not veot it but
'postpone' it 'til i am done w/ other things I start)

In my particular case I need to get things from a panel and its window
reference before closing it.
I am displaying a dialog before closing and if the closing is confirmed I
see that the 1st thing that happens is that the panel object gets deleted.
The panel object resides as a key (not as strg(key)) in a dictionary I
need to work on BEFORE the panel gets deleted.
The way it is working now I end up with a dictionary I cannot access
anymore by key because the key (i.e. the panel object) was deleted right
on confirmation ...

Looking fwd to any suggestion ...

Do whatever you need to do after the dialog's ShowModal returns and before you do whatever you do that causes the panel to be be destroyed.
