Hi,
Set the form keypreview to true if you want to catch esc no matter
what control has the focus.

Private Sub Form1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles MyBase.KeyDown

If e.KeyCode = Keys.Escape Then

MessageBox.Show("Escape")

End If

End Sub

Have a look at the Form's CancelButton property. Usually used with modal
Forms.
