Get ASCII Value of KeyStroke

[Wayne Wengert]

I want to pass the ASCII value of a keystroke to a sub that checks for valid
characters (see sample below). I have looked through the possible choices
for "values" of the e.KeyChar but I can't find what I need? I am trying to
adapt an old VB6 routine so it may well be that I am going at this the wrong
way for .NET"

Any suggestions appreciated.
================= Sample Code ==============
Private Sub txtEqpVoc_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles txtEqpVoc.KeyPress

DecCheck(txtEqpVoc.Text, e.KeyChar.????)

End Sub

You can use the Asc function:

DecCheck(txtEqpVoc.Text, Asc(e.KeyChar))

hope that helps..

[...]
DecCheck(txtEqpVoc.Text, e.KeyChar.????)

'AscW(e.KeyChar)', 'Asc(e.KeyChar)', 'Convert.ToInt32(c)'.
