How to make shortcut key to view the other form?

[mykill]

Hi....

anybody have an idea if what are the codes on how to make a shortcut key to view the other form?

ex:

if I press F1 the other form will show.....
(considering without using menustrip to setup the shortcut keys)

somebody please.....

I would use the Form's KeyUp event and if the KeyCode equals Keys.F1 simply show the form or set focus to the form if it's already open

JuggaloBrotha, I think he wanted the code, cause I posted that, but deleted it after rereading what he had posted.

Just giving him the code to do this wont help him int he long run, so I may not be helping him to his fullest request at least I'm giving him a pointer in the right direction. If he's serious in being a programmer then it's up to him from this point to accomplish this extremely easy task, otherwise he'll never get it done.

I did see your post after you deleted it and I was wondering why you even deleted because your post is what he needs anyways.

try this on key down event of form and please make true , me.keypreview=true

if e.keycode=keys.F2 then
form2.show
end if
