Jim,

Use Systems.Windows.Forms.Keys ... it has properties for a lot of the "special" keys.

> On the main Window of the application I have a treeview. I want to program the ability to refresh the treeview when the user hits F5 on the keyboard. There is not an ascii code for this key. If I create a menu option that uses the F5 key when the treeview has focus nothing happens, but if another form has focus and I hit the F5 key I get the results I want to. How do I get the F5 key to work from the treeview?
