Hi Borislav

>Yes, but I always thought that in KeyPress you should get nKeyCode = xx (where xx is the actual code w/o modifiers) and separately you would get modifiers (wrong thoughts were found to be).

Logically you are right, but I guess they want to share the INKEY() everywhere. Why not correct mistakes from the original FP when they *do* modify things, continuing the eg.

From FP25 DOS INKEY() help

Key     Alone   Shift   Ctrl    Alt
ENTER    13      13      10      28

From VFP9 INKEY() help

Key     Alone   Shift   Ctrl    Alt
ENTER    13      13      10      -/166

If they could change the Alt no. they could the ctrl no.

Well as the article on the UT front page Monolithic Myopia
