Expand/collapse with right arrow

Erwin

Hello,

Is it possible to expand/collapse a tree view form with the left- and right-arrow key (like in windows explorer) in stead of clicking it with your mouse?
I tried creating a button with a shortcutkey that does the expanding/collapsing. Problem is that the shortcutkey does not allow anything else than the function keys.

Thanks,

Erwin

Unless you do it through a .NET automation, there is no way to know which arrow key is pressed.

The only hack I can even think of is somehow monitoring the OnActivate and OnDeactivate triggers, but even then mouse clicks would have the same effect.

It's not a problem if the mouse-click is still working. The only thing that's important is that the arrow keys will also work.

Problem solved. I downloaded the Hotkey Extender (http://www.mibuso.com/dlinfo.asp?FileID=1120). With this automation I can catch all keyboard events.
