Shortcut Keys in Visual Basic

[Raeki]

Hi, I was wondering about how to apply shortcut keys (like control+c and control+v) in visual basic

There was a thread on this I found but I tried all the codes and variations but nothing worked, like nothing would happen when I pressed the keys

could someone give me the code about how to activate a "control+t" and a "control+r" control? thanks

the farthest I got was:

private sub form3_key down...........handles form3.keydown
if e.keycodes = keys.control and e.keycodes = keys.t then
msgbox("hi")
end if
end sub

I that was the best looking code I got, but it didn't work
i also did
For Each item As Control In Me.Controls
AddHandler item.KeyDown, AddressOf Form3_KeyDown
Next

i noticed if I did code for just pressing the control key it worked but when I tried to use two keys it didnt'

Did you set the KeyPreview property of the form to true?

e.keydata should give you the codes you're looking for. Try this and see the different results:

 Private Sub TextBox1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyDown
        lblCode.Text = e.KeyCode
        lblData.Text = e.KeyData
        lblValue.Text = e.KeyValue
    End Sub

e.keydata should reflect the ctrl+key combination.

You can use Andalso for that :

Private Sub TextBox1_KeyUp(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyUp
        If e.Control = True AndAlso e.KeyCode = Keys.D0 Then
            MsgBox("manhit")
        End If
    End Sub
