(1-900 number) I believe I read your previous post on wanting to trap all instances of the arrow key presses. If you use inkey$ and convert the keypress to lower case, this reduces the number of checks that have to be done. However, if you are also checking for characters that should not be converted to lowercase, you have to have some code to check this out. If you're only checking for arrow presses, there's no problem. If you want some sample code, I've got it in one of my software packages that I wrote. I could pull it out and leave it here for you.
