How do you capture function keys on a vb form?

Thanks!

You may not like the answer. Every place you want that function key active, you must put a trap in the keydown or keyup event to capture the function key press. If there are a lot of controls, this can be a real pain. Have fun!

HDR, I don't agree...

Use this

Code:

---


Private Sub Form_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
If Shift = 1 And KeyCode = vbKeyJ Then MsgBox "SHIFT"
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.KeyPreview = True
End Sub

---

this will work for all control... and what do you mean with Function keys? F1...F12 ?
that you could do

If KeyCode = vbKeyF1 ....

GoodLuck!
