Hi,

Does anybody know how you can send keyodes to two different forms at the same time?
So when you press the z-key (for example), the letter z is shown in two text-boxes (which are on the two differnet forms).
 
Intercept the key stroke in the KeyPress event of the control that you are working with and send it to whatever forms you want.
There are several ways to do this . . .the most elegant whould be to post the keystroke in the message queue for the forms that you want to receive the keystroke, but you can also simple put the letter in the different textboxes that you want to put them in. - Jeff Marler B-)
