using escape key to exit a userform
hello all, and thanks in advance for any help on this.
i have a userform that is modal. the user's would like to be able to hit "esc" to exit it, along with using the Cancel button. is this a problem with a modal form? some info on the form: no button on the form has cancel set to true. the cancel button and the standard "close" button work fine. the form has a listbox, three buttons, and an optionbox group. only slecting is done on the form, no typing done by the user. for some reason, KeyDown is never activated on the form. nor is the keypress event. i was going to use those to capture if the user pressed the escape key. i am using Excel XP. thanks again! heidi |

Setting the Close or Cancel button's Cancel property to True should do just that, regardless of the modality. -- Dick Kusleika MVP - Excel Excel Blog - Daily Dose of Excel www.dicks-blog.com |

key work?? -----Original Message----- Heidi some info on the form: no button on the form has cancel set to true. the cancel button and the standard "close" button work fine. the form has a listbox, three buttons, and an optionbox group. only slecting is done on the form, no typing done by the user.
