>>>>>Does anyone know of a means of capturing the contents of the keyboard buffer? Having searched the Thread, I see this question has been asked several times, but never answered directly. I do not have a situation where I can look to Inkey() or the keypress method to capture a keypress, I need to examine the keyboard buffer's contents.

Ahh, I see. I don't think that there's a system variable or anything like that that holds the keyboard buffer contents, but you can use INKEY() in a loop to capture more than one keystroke... does that do you any good?
