CTRL + C keypress on a Datagrid

[NickPra]

Hi,
I wish to capture the keypress event for a datagrid. I have added the handlers for the Keypress and Keydown for the textbox of each column. Problem is that the modular keys (Control, shift and ATL) are handled by the keydown and the 'C' key is handled by the keypress. How can i get the combination code for this so that i can write my copy routine.

Thanks in advance.

Try this in the _KeyDown event

'This shows you how to trap when certain keys are pressed
        If e.KeyCode.Equals(Keys.Enter) = True Then
            lblPressed.Text = "you pressed: Enter"
        ElseIf e.KeyCode.Equals(Keys.F10) = True Then
            lblPressed.Text = "you pressed: F10"
        Else
            lblPressed.Text = e.KeyCode.ToString
        End If

It appears that i have not solved the problem. The e. in the _KeyDown event doesn't appear to hold more than one keydown event at a time.

Sorry.

Here's one way that investiages which bits are set in the modiferkeys property of the control object:

    Private Sub TextBox1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyDown
        If (Control.ModifierKeys And Keys.Shift) > 0 And (Control.ModifierKeys And Keys.Control) > 0 Then
            If e.KeyCode = Keys.A Then
                MessageBox.Show("Shift + Control + A")
            End If
        End If
    End Sub
