Hi Manu,

1) Is it possibe to activate an Userform or List Box by
hitting one Key, (in Foxpro it is ONKEY Label...")

If your sub that shows the form is called "SubThatShowsTheForm", then
this codeline will attach that sub to control-shift-s:

Application.Onkey "^+s", "SubThatShowsTheForm"

2) while giving conditions we use
" if a = "xxx" then ....." etc .....

but how to say
"if a (isnot equal) "xxx" ......"
( other than "else" ..... Condition)

If a < "xxx" Then


3) while giving conditions we use "if ... then ...
endif ..."statements is it possible for using one
more "if .. then.. endif"
statement in between that statement , if yes how
many "endif" we have to use at the end

You can nest them:

If A=1 Then
If a=2 Then
Msgbox "A= 2"
Else
Msgbox "A is 1"
End If
Else
Msgbox "A is neither 1 nor 2"
End If

Or:

If A=1 Then
Msgbox "A is 1"
ElseIf a=2 Then
Msgbox "A= 2"
Else
Msgbox "A is neither 1 nor 2"
End If
