To move a shape object on a sheet only up and down or left and right, you can
hold the shift key down. Is there a way thru programming to set the shift
key as pressed so that any shape object moved with only move left or right or
up and down when selected?

Thanks

As Shapes are not ActiveX objects, they do not trigger events. As such you
do not know when a user is moving a Shape.
You could kludge something with a Timer I suppose, but...

Maybe provide the user with Nudge Up/Down/Left/Right Buttons of Spinners.
