Its a simple question, and the way the question is written isn't really all that annoying.. though I do like plain text better

, no need to flame her (I'm guessing that your a her..), btw, I'm addressing hte people that DID give a hostile response, some of you were just helpful

. But anyways, to answer your question, simple use the code below (Change Text1 to the name of your textbox):

(Toggle Plain Text)

Private Sub Text1_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)
If (KeyAscii = 8 Or KeyAscii = 46) Then Exit Sub
If Not (KeyAscii >= 48 And KeyAscii <= 57) Or (KeyAscii >= 96 And KeyAscii >= 105) Then KeyAscii = 0
End Sub

^^If you'd like me to explain how or why the code above works (or if you have problems with it) you can IM me on AIM (SN is Brownhead622), MSN (SN is Brownhead622@hotmail.com), or just PM me. G'day all

You're just trying to get some

lol.

On every forum I've visited, without fail, when a guy helps a gal, there's at least one other person who assumes that he just wants to "get some". :p

No, when a guy helps a gal, then hands her his email address.. but it was a joke anyways, I dont care.

Maybe she should read this - Posting and you

She should read a lot of things, Zorin, but she'd rather be cute and helpless. I have no doubt it works for her in her usual world.

teehee i don't really want to learn anything!

lol!!!!!!! ;-*

How the hell are people supposed to learn if they are always ridiculed for asking questions?

And HackerGirl probably isn't even a girl and is just taking advantage of heterosexual males (and like-minded females). If I'm wrong, HackerGirl can write me a big long PM telling me how wrong I am

I would help you but I left all my VB knowledge in 10th grade. Perhaps you should consider posting what you have done so far, and showing these people that you have put some effort into your project

Create a timer, and call the function GetAsyncKeyState. Then you check what key was pressed, and call the respective OnClick event function for that number or key.

Here's something to help you get started. http://www.freevbcode.com/ShowCode.asp?ID=4042

That has to be the single most roundabout way to do something so simple.

1) Set KeyPreview on the form to True so that it gets keypresses even wheh child controls have focus.
2) Write a handler for KeyPress, KeyUp, or KeyDown in your form.
3) Success!

Don't forget to set your font to 72 either. Us programmers have a hard time reading font sizes as small as 12... We also have a hard time reading things that are black. That's why compilers always change font colors on us.
