>How do I make the ESCape key close a form? I suppose I could put an invisible button on the form with escape as the default. Is that the best way. I tried to use ON ESCAPE but couldn't get it to work.

Thanks to all of you. I'll try some of these ideas tomorrow. I'm reluctant to put key-press code in unnecessarily, because it executes so frequently. But the idea of a cancel button (maybe not visible) seems reasonable.
