Thanks for reading my post. David, how would you accomplish this if you weren't working in a form where you could check those properties? Maybe only the WinAPI will do it? In otherwords, I'm staring at my app's desktop, I'm sitting on READ EVENTS, and what I want to have happen is if they click on a menu, they see one thing. If the Shift-Click on the menu, they see another thing. Maybe not possible for the menu, but VFP does it .. so I wonder how they did it?
Or maybe if I have to, what I'm trying to do is conditionally make a control on a form visible. For example, in a form that has a pageframe on it, I only want a certain to control to be visible if a certain key was depressed when they clicked on that page of the form. Maybe use CHRSAW() or something, but what INKEY() value would Shift-Click produce, if any?
Does that make any sense?
Now I'm more curious than anything else. Thanks for the clues? Up for a mind puzzle? Thanks.
