Raised when the user presses a key. The event corresponds to the WM_KEYDOWN Windows message, and is actually triggered by it. The second parameter is a bit-mask exposing the state of SHIFT, CTRL and ALT keys, through the first, second and third bit respectively. You might check the state like this:

VB  Copy Code
' Use bit masks to determine which key was pressed. shiftDown = (Shift And 1) > 0 ctrlDown = (Shift And 2) > 0 altDown = (Shift And 4) > 0 ' Display message telling user which key was pressed. If shiftDown Then MsgBox "You pressed the SHIFT key."
