Using VB.NET, is there a way to determine if the Shift key
is down (or the Control key, etc.)?



~BenDilts( void );

Ben,
From a Control (remember Form is derived from Control). You can use the
Control.ModifierKeys property.

Control also has a Control.MouseButtons property to find the state of the
mouse buttons.

These are Shared/Static so they can be used when you do not have an instance
of a Control/Form.

Hope this helps
Jay

Imports System.Windows.Forms

MsgBox((Control.ModifierKeys And Keys.Shift) = Keys.Shift)
