Hi
I need to know how, if even possible, to enable the user of my program to control the Size and Posisiton of the circle I have Drawn on the form by using the Enter Key (to increase size), Shift Key (to decrease size), and Arrow Keys (to alter posistion of circle on screen).
My program consists of a single form with six command buttons and a circle that I drew with the shape control. For each of the command buttons I have written a click prcedure so that the user can control the size and posistion of the shape by clicking buttons.
I need to alter this program so that the user can use key strokes instead of mouse clicks to control size and posistion. I also need any command buttons on the form to be invisable to the user so that only the Circle is present in their view.
I have tried for hours to accomplish this and have failed. Please Help!

Sounds like a homework assignment.
Look into keypress events (Keyup, keydown) Each key has it's own KeyAscii or keycode value assigned to it. This example will show you the key code each time you let off a key that was pressed. -
Private Sub Form_KeyUp(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
-
'You can use this to alter the size of your object or any other code you want to run
-
MsgBox KeyCode, VBOkOnly, "Key Code Value"
-
End Sub

Hi,
I am stuck... I've got a popup window that displays a list in table
format with links on the bottom to navigate the list <prev> 1 2 3 ...
<next>
When I demo'd to the users... they immediately asked if they could use
the arrow keys and enter key to navigate the list. I think there must
be a way to do this, but I can't figure it out.

I've got this working but I've got to wonder if there's not a better
way.
I'm capturing the tab and shift-tab keys in a datagrid and doing
custom processing.
Also, the form designer gets weird when I put in the line:
Me.FileList = New FileListDataGrid(AddressOf HandleTabKey, _
AddressOf HandleShiftTabKey)

I have problems detecting the Arrow Keys on a User Control. A control

I override IsInputKey() to direct the Arrow Keys (Cursor Keys) to my

prevents the Arrow Keys from coming through.
How can I intercept the Arrow Keys when holding down the Shift Key?

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. 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,...
