I would like it if my program could keep all its functionality as I "translate" it from assembly. Thanks.

      • Hello all, good morning :) need some help with this one please: I have 6 textboxes on my form. I need to assign each textbox with a shorcut key (eg. alt + 1, atl+2 etc..) and then copy the contents to the clipboard. I take it that I would have to put the code in a timer event & would the shorcut keys still work even if the form is not displayed on the screen Thanks, Stuart
