keyboard input to contol animation

hi
can any one suggest a way to utilize the keyboard to control an animation
for example in a space invaders game.
when a key is pressed and hed at the moment, there is one movement and then
a pause before the 'repeat' of the key is acted upon to move the animation
further. I know this is a windows setting to stop multiple key strokes...
but is there any way around this in code in vb?
