[AccessD] Function Keys - A2K

In you form's properties, set "key preview" to "yes" and place the following
code in the "On Key Up" event:

Private Sub Form_KeyUp(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
     Select Case KeyCode
        Case 27 'Escape was pressed
            KeyCode = 0 'Setting a keycode to 0 will "disable" that key's
function
        Case 114 'F3 was pressed
            Call YourFunctionNameHere()
        Case 116 'F5 was pressed
            Msgbox "F5 was pressed"
        Case 117 'F6 was pressed
            Msgbox "F6 was pressed"
        Case 119 'F8 was pressed
            Msgbox "F8 was pressed"
        Case 120 'F9 was pressed
            Msgbox "F9 was pressed"
        Case 121 'F10 was pressed
            Msgbox "F10 was pressed"
        'Case vbKeyF12 'F12 was pressed '<-- Can also call this way
            'Msgbox "F12 was pressed"
      End Select
  End Sub

How do I access the powers the function keys in an Access app?

I want to use F3 (or whatever) to perform a certain function.  How can I
call the function using an F3 keypress?

Thanks.
