detect shift/enter TLabel 1

[DelphiAaron]

i have made a label that attaches itself to an edit box and changes color with the edit box focus.

the label monitors the editboxes messages and can respond to them.

i want to detect enter and shift/enter to move focus from the editbox.

i can detect enter with something like
if msg.msg = WM_CHAR then if msg.lparam = 13 then ...

but cant work out how to detect shift/enter in the message.

maybe someone has a way ???

thanx

What about using OnKeyDown?

Other than that, you can use the API functions GetKeyState or GetAsyncKeyState (beware the last one, multitasking can fool you).

yes, while waiting for a responce on tek-tips i found some code relating to the getkeystate and that worked.

thanx
