I use the Keypress Event to detect the keystrokes Shift-F2 through Shift-F7. Because these keys have identical values to the keys Shift-U through Shift-Z (85-90) I cannot tell the difference. The effect of this is that on some forms when the operator presses Shift-U (for example) nothing happens.

Capslock and then "u" will result in a capital "U" however because the Keypress Event detects this as a non-shifted character.

Is there a workaround that will reliably detect the difference between Shift-F2 and Shift-U, etc?

TIA
