Programming keyborads events

[Shree]

Hi all,
Can someone tell me if the "Esc" Key can be programmed to
close the form? I tried onKeypress Keyasccii value but
that didnt work. Is there another way?
Please help.
TIA

I usually have a Cancel or Close button on the form with its Cancel
Property set to True.

I use this

Private Sub Form_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)

If KeyAscii = vbKeyEscape Then DoCmd.Close 'close the form if the
user presses the ESCAPE key

End Sub
