| re: The lost ENTER key...
Very odd. Although, I have experienced this kind of problem using a numeric up/down.
Anyway, you could play around with global hooks.
Here is a link to some c# classes. Search around for vb.net implementations or just add
some of the c#
classes to your solution.
Sorry I can't help more. GL
