We upgraded a vb project to vb.net and added many enhancements. The old
project was not an MDI and used buttons for functions like adding a record
(Alt A), deleteing a record etc. This is a data entry app so user speed is
of utmost importance. Now we have an MDI interface, but the users would like
to keep their Alt keystrokes because of speed/retraining issues. We also
would like to introduce Ctrl keystrokes with the hopes of phasing out the
Alt. We'd like a solution that doesn't replicate code. Is there a way to
capture the Alt-A in a form and change it to a Ctrl-A that the MDI parent
would then pick up? For other reasons, we do have KeyPreview turned on in
the child forms. Any thoughts? Thanks.
