Form Event Question

Author	Message
s.. #1 / 4	Form Event Question Hi, I'm not sure if I'm phasing this correctly, but I need the left and right keys to work like tab and shift tab.. Right now, I'm placing code and all object on the form in the KeyDown event to handle this, but is there some global event for the form that applied to every object? Also, if I want help to appear when F1 is pressed, I would probably have to do the same thing, right? Thanks John Sent via Deja.com http://www.--*.com/

Terry Austi #2 / 4	Form Event Question The form will have a KeyPreview property you can set to True. Then put your code in the KeyDown event for the form.

Jeff Terrac #3 / 4	Form Event Question For the help file, just go to the program properties and set the help Dir, or in code set: App.HelpFile = "C:\help.hlp", it automatically detects F1 Quote: > Hi, I'm not sure if I'm phasing this correctly, but I need the left and > right keys to work like tab and shift tab..
