How to disable CTRL-S, but not CTRL-C/CTRL-V

99 New Member
For complicated reasons, I am disabling Ctrl-S on a form, so that users have to use the Save button. I have the following code, which works fine:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Private Sub Form_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
  2.     Select Case True
  3.     Case (Shift = acCtrlMask)
  4.         Beep
  5.         KeyCode = 0
  6.     Case ((Shift = 0) And (KeyCode = vbKeyCancel Or KeyCode = vbKeyReturn Or KeyCode = vbKeyEscape))
  7.         Beep
  8.         KeyCode = 0
  9.     End Select
  10. End Sub
  11.  
But this disables Ctrl-anything!! I would like users to still be able to cut and paste data in fields.

Is there any way of catching the NEXT key after CTRL has been pressed down? I had thought the 'KeyCode' might be the next key, but it isn't! It is "17" which is the code for CTRL itself.

(Long time since I've been here! Hope you are all still there?!!)
