[RESOLVED] Hi

I have a VB6 form containing 3 command buttons.I want to create a shortcut to each control.For example when they press F1, command1 is executed,when they press F2 command2 is executed, when they press ESC command Exit is executed.

Hi is not a proper title.

Set the keypreview property of your form to true and write this

VB Code:

Private Sub Form_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
    Select Case KeyCode
        Case vbKeyF1
            Call Command1_Click
        Case vbKeyF2
            Call Command2_Click
        Case vbKeyF3
            Call Command3_Click
    End Select
End Sub

You don't need code for this. Place a standard command button on the form and enter 'Cancel' as its Caption property, and put Unload Me in its click event. Next, set the control's Cancel property to True. When Cancel Property is set to True VB executes the button's Click() event whenever you press the [Esc] key (as well as when you click it).

This is correct. Something like "Relate Function Keys To Command Buttons" would be more accurate.
