Hi all,
i was looking at a bot the other day it had a command that when you press "Esc" it closed it or whatever. I was wondering how this was done. If you could give some examples maybe.
Thx in advance.
Add shortcut keys to menus
make a button
set the cancel property of the button = true (esc)
using the keyascii properties is how some ppl do it. The enter key is 13, so it'd be:
If keyascii=13 then
Do all ur stuff
end if
If keyascii=27 then ' esc button
unload me
end
end if
unload
put this on form_keypress and so on
I found a dandy little lister of the keyascii code

It works quite well.

Visual Basic provides symbolic constants for many characters. I'd strongly recommend using those if possible.
Under Win32, you can easily view how characters are mapped with the current charset by using charmap.exe, which can be installed along with Windows (you can add it from the CD using Add/Remove Windows Components if you didn't install it when you installed Windows).
