[RESOLVED] F5 key

[thedoc1]

I am writing a program where I need to have the F5 key available for refreshing the screen. I don't want to put the option in a menu. I was wondering if there was a way to program the F5 to be received from the keyboard.

Thanks

This will work for a single form. If want something that is application wide you would need to use subclassing or system hooks.

Private Sub Form_KeyUp(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
    If KeyCode = vbKeyF5 Then
        debug.print "F5 pressed"
    End If
End Sub

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