WPF dialog does not allow editing text field

Question

The WPF form that I run from the WinForms window displays with all the text fields as uneditable when it runs as a modeless dialog box. It works well when it is a modal window. I can still type spaces or embed text. But regular printing does not work. I am using 3.5 with SP1. Does anyone know how to solve this?

You need to call ElementHost.EnableModelessKeyboardInterop for your WPF window. This allows you to connect the WPF message outline for keyboard input.
