[macai]

Private Sub Text1_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)
 Select Case KeyAscii
  Case Asc("o")
   KeyAscii = Asc("0")
 End Select
End Sub

Does this help?

[Cmdr0Sunburn]

no, because i am not typing IN my program, i am typing out of it

If macai's suggestion is not what you're after, then I assume you want to re-map your keyboard keys. You could probably write a program to do this using API's - haven't done it before though. I would start looking at the API's that deal with the keyboard.

Oh i see. Well, you see you can use the "GetAsyncKeyState" API
and when the user presses certain buttons, you say

'Declares
Public Declare Function GetAsyncKeyState Lib "user32" Alias "GetAsyncKeyState" (ByVal vKey As Long) As Integer
'When you want to replace o with 0
SendKeys {BS}
SendKeys "0"
'Check for the button being pressed
If GetAsyncKeyState(Asc("o"))

Does THAT help?

If GetAsyncKeyState(Asc("o")) Then

Sorry i found a couple errors, try this.

doesnt sendkeys need a window name to send to?
then i wound need to find what window i am typing in

[macai]

SendKeys, by default, sends the keys to whatever is the currently
active control. Cool, huh?

If you want to remap your keys just pop them off of your keyboard and move them around
