Why SHIFT in Shortcuts in TextBox?

The shortcuts won't work in my application.
CTRL+Z
CTRL+C
CTRL+Y
CTRL+X
etc...
In stead I must use the SHIFT key:
CTRL+SHIFT+Z
CTRL+SHIFT+C
CTRL+SHIFT+Y
CTRL+SHIFT+X
etc...

Why?...

I want the first one. How?

I'm using VB 2005.

See the ShortcutsEnable d property.

The ShortcutsEnable d property is set to True and it works. The problem is
that I have to use the SHIFT key in shortcuts.

1) Copying text using CTRL+C won't work.
2) Copying text using CTRL+SHIFT+C works fine.

Why?...

The most common combination is the first one.

Weird. This happens with a minimal application? - Start VB2005, new
WinForms app, drop on a TextBox, run?

You haven't got a SHIFT-LOCK on your keyboard or something?

I believe Larry was referring to Shift-Lock... aka Sticky Shift (an
accessibility setting for those that can't hold two keys down at once)

All fields in ACCESSIBILITY OPTIONS | KEYBOARD are blank.

hello, I just developed an .adp application linked to SQL Server 7, I compiled it disabling also all the shortcuts from the tools->startup menu and obtained an .ade project. My problem is that users are still allowed to use the shift+enter shortcut even they doesn't see the vba code yet. Could someone tell me how that functionality can be disabled? thank you in advance for your help. --ansi_c

Hi, I want to use shortcuts such as F6 or F7 to do something. When i apply event to a blank form, it works well. But if there are some controls on the form like textbox or something else, they are selected automatically, so form events doesn't work :( (There is one way i know to do that, to add unvisible menu items and give them shortcuts but i think it is not a good programming) And my other problem, is there any Regular Expression...

Hello, I need to add a shift-F2 function to textboxes to bring up a dialogform with the expanded text contained in the respective Textbox. On any of the keydown events of a textbox I can only trap for one key - well, I only know how to trap for one key. How can I trap for Shift-F2 combination? I see that menuItems have shortcutkey options. How can I create similar functionality for the textbox control? Thanks,

With ToolStripMenuItem objects i created a 'Tools' menu and from that menu droped an Item to which i assigned a ShortcutKey of 'Keys.Control | Keys.E', and the shortcut doesn't work. This ToolStripMenuItem is inside a Form, i tryed with different shortcuts and some work, some don't. For instance, 'Keys.Control | Keys.R' doesn't work either. Is anyone familiar with this problem? MenuStrip msMenu = new MenuStrip(); msMenu.Parent = this;

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
