>>Does anyone know of a way to save the contents of the keyboard buffer to a memory variable, or to anything else for that matter, and then retrieve it afterwards? My program is losing keystrokes when the I hit ESC quickly 2 or 3 times. It only processes 1 press of the ESC key and I haven't been able to figure out why.

Then my program sets the Cancel property of the Undo button to false and the Cancel property of the Find button to true. The second press of the ESC key should "click" the Find button, but it doesn't. I am hitting ESC pretty fast, but not that fast.

Thanks for your suggestion. I just tried disabling the Undo button in the click event of the Undo button (I think that's what you meant), and it didn't help. Also, I have tried pressing ESC and waiting and pressing it again. It works perfectly. Any other ideas, I'm stumped?
