'Fraid you can't. At least not with native FoxPro commands/events. The windows meta key is scanned by the OS similar to the mouse movements (not mouse clicks).

You can do this only using Windows API functions for hooks. This requires to know API well, and also requires to have ActiveX to define call-back function for hooks.

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs
