Combination of keys to do a process

[easycode]

Hello All,
I need to do a process when a combination of keys are hit, for example ctrl+alt+q ot crtl+alt+s. It could be any combination of keys. How can i create a combination of keys in access.

Thanks in advance

Take a look at the SendKeys statement.

Be careful with sendkeys; You're never 100% sure where you're sending them!

To trap for the mentioned keys
1 - set the forms keypreview property to yes
2 - in the keydown event of the form, try

[tt]if keycode = vbkeyq and _
(shift and acaltmask) > 0 and _
(shift and acctrlmask) > 0 then
msgbox "alt+ctrl+q is pressed ..."
end if[/tt]

If you lookup the KeyDown event in the help files, there are more explanations, and a sample.
