.net - Form KeyDown Not Working?
Apr 3, 2011
Private Sub Form1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles MyBase.KeyDown
If e.Control Then
MessageBox.Show("aaaa")
End If
End Sub
As you can see, my form will check for when the control key is pressed down.But it doesn't work. Why?

I have checked my code countless times, tried other computers, and yet the keydown event will not work.
My code:Private Sub Form_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
If KeyCode = vbKeyRight Then
imgPerson.Left = imgPerson.Left + 500
End If
End Sub
That's all there is because I was just testing it out. imgPerson does exist, so that's not a problem.

Well I'm currently in the middle of adding a few fine details to a program I'm busy with. Basically whats happening though is that I want to be able to delete some settings on the fly instead of individually, I also want to accomplish this through a simple key press.
Private Sub Form1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyDown
If e.KeyCode = Keys.F1 Then
MsgBox("Do you wish to remove all entries and clear all relative data?", MsgBoxStyle.YesNoCancel)
If MsgBoxResult.Yes Then
[code]....

I am trying to use the keydown/keyup events with buttons in the same project and it not working properly. I have 4 red boxes and when I press an arrow key the box should change to green according to which arrow key it corrosponds to. I have this part working fine, however only when there is nothing else in the project. When I add in say 3 buttons, Button1, Button2, Button3 and try runing the program instead of the correct red box changing to green, button outline just moves between buttons 1,2 and 3. I have tried turning tabstop off for the three buttons but that didnt work. how to read the keydown/keyup while still having buttions that can be pressed with a mouse?

I need to detect shift + arrow key in blank form. But it's not working. I also tried overriding IsInputKey method but it only detects single key press (like arrow key) but when multiple key are pressed it simply doesn't work.

I want to know how to do a keydown at form level. If I am not using Form Level the right way, this is what I mean. In my Form there is nothing.I want it so when the user presses a key that it will msgbox() something.As I said, there is nothing on the form what so ever No ComboBox, Button, nothing.

I am having trouble using keydown for the spacebar in a form.I would like the spacebar to start/stop a StopWatch that I have running. I can get that to work fine but whenever I am focused on another button it also executes that buttons function also.I know that is the default behavior for the enter key and spacebar but I would like to override that.

I want to able to hold a key down while the application is loading and depending on which is being held down a certain form is shown.
For example holding down shift and the opening itunes opens a little dialog allowing you set the library(or something)
I can check whether the shift/Ctrl/Alt are being held down but i'd prefer to use the letters/digits.
Such as hold 1 down to open Form1 and hold 2 down to open form 2.

I'm using VB.NET (2008) and .NET framework 3.5. In my application I've got an on screen button that, when pressed, sends "00" as the characters [via SendKeys.Send("00")]. I also have a keyboard that has a '00' key that sends "00", two zeros, when pressed. I'm picking up the keypress using the form's KeyDown event - it fires twice, once for each "0" and works whether the on-screen or keyboard '00' is pressed. There's also a singe '0' on-screen button and key on the keyboard that sends "0".
I want to be able to treat the "00" as a single event. I.E. in the KeyDown handler, if the character is a single zero "0", I would like to check the next character to see if it is also a zero "0". If it is then I can handle it appropriately, but also need to remove it (from the keyboard buffer?) so that it doesn't fire the second KeyDown event. If it's not a zero then it should be left to fire the next event in the normal fashion.

Private Sub FrmMain_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyDown
Select Case e.KeyCode

when I added a textbox to my form, my keydown events no longer work. It seems impossible to get the blinking cursor out of the textbox so as to avoid targeting it. How do I retain keydown events when a textbox is added to the form?

I have noticed that a form's keydown method has a slight delay the first time you hold a button. How do I get rid of it?

I am creating an Excel add-in written in VB.NET. I would like to bind KeyDown and KeyUp events to the spreadsheet to record when the user presses and releases the arrow keys while navigating the spreadsheetIdeally, these events would be built into Excel alongside the native SheetActivate and SheetSelectionChange events, for example. Alas, they are not.

I have win7 pro, on my win form is a traffic light icon(when it starts it is red, when finished it is green), so that I know when job is finished. But when I run application icon isn't changing and form hangs it self, can not do nothing until job is finished. Only in the end, I see that icon is quickly changes to red and then back to green.

I have a form that displays a graph. From the appropriate toobar button click frmGraph.show is called and it works. But when I call it from the assigned F6 function key the graph hardly ever displays. Sometimes it does display properly, sometime it flickers a one time display of the graph then it's gone, but mostly the form just draws the background but no graph. In debugging this i discoverd that putting a message box just before the call to frmGraph.show the graph will display properly everytime after i click ok in the messagebox. Anyone know how to cure this or at least a workaround that doesn't involve displaying the messagebox? This is the code with the messagebox("here") just above the call.
