Catch Enter Key 1

[tlhawkins]

I'm a VB programmer who is making the switch to Delphi.

Can someone help me catch an enter key in a tRichText box?

do I use OnKeyPress,OnKeyDown,OnKeyUp or what?

do I have to verify that the Enter key happened in the rTextBox?

what is the KeyCode for "Enter"? probably the same as VB... but I forgot.

Thanks.

If by tRichText box you mean a TRichEdit component, then you can "catch" the enter key by processing the OnKeyPress event and testing for #13:
[blue]

procedure TForm1.RichEdit1KeyPress(Sender: TObject; var Key: Char);
begin
  if Key = #13 then Key := '?';
end;

Thanks Zathras,

You guessed my meaning correctly. Thanks.
and the procedure works perfect.
